Stats:

Having won there in the Championship, United are aiming for their first-ever Premier League success at the Amex.

That would give them a fourth away victory in the league this season, following on from Burnley, Huddersfield and Leicester.

With Perez on 10 PL goals this season and Rondon on nine, one for the Venezuelan would make them the first two players to reach double figures in a PL season for the club since Demba Ba (16) and Papiss Cisse (13) in 2011/12.

2017/18 lost 0-1
2016/17 won 2-1 Diame, Perez
2012/13 lost 0-2 (FAC)
2011/12 lost 0-1 (FAC)
1991/92 drew 2-2 G.Peacock, Kelly

[The Deluded Pablo Diego Jose Francisco]

Can see Brighton winning this as they will treat this like a cup final and we have nothing to play for.

[Blue & Maroon]

Brighton nearly always beat us at their place, 1 0 defeat

[TJR]

I'd love it if we just turned up to frustrate them all game and then nicked a shithouse win from a ridiculous goal like Diame's the other year. Would be even better if Cardiff win as well.

It'll be a shame for Hughton who's a good bloke and doesn't deserve it but I really hope Brighton go down. Genuinely awful football club and fan base.

[Crouching Shola Hidden Talent]

Can see Brighton winning this as they will treat this like a cup final and we have nothing to play for.

This. It's nice to go into a game finally relaxed knowing that we are safe, but there is no doubt Brighton will be targeting this game as their big chance to pull away. 1-0 defeat.

[Colly]

Atsu and Shelvey start. I might not bother...

[UlversToon]

2-1 Toon.

[Donkey Toon]

Yeah I'm expecting a dull game and a defeat. May just have it on in the background.

[Blue & Maroon]

Glad I'm at work.

Shelvey actually covered there. Fair play.

[The Deluded Pablo Diego Jose Francisco]

Surprised Brighton haven't come out on the front foot, instead sitting back and letting us have the ball.

[thedeludedfannymagnet2]

Perez has got a bad side

[The Deluded Pablo Diego Jose Francisco]

PEREZ!!!!!

[beatski]

[thedeludedfannymagnet2]
