Brighton played against Manchester United at Old Trafford in their 3rd round match and they won 2-1 away from home. They are 14th on the EPL table and are without a win in their last 5 games.
The last time these two clubs played in an FA Cup match was in 2023 when Brighton knocked Liverpool out of the competition winning 2-1 at home and in the league the home team has won in the last 4 meetings.
