Brighton
Brighton are set to be without Solly March, Julio Enciso (both knee), Bart Verbruggen and Igor Julio (both unspecified) as they continue to recover from injury, while Evan Ferguson (foot), Pervis Estupinan (ankle) and Tariq Lamptey (unspecified) have all taken part in training and will be assessed ahead of kickoff.
Hurzeler has confirmed that Yankuba Minteh is available for selection after coming off on the stroke of half time of his debut against Everton last weekend due to concussion protocols; Adingra and £25m winger Brajan Gruda are both waiting in the wings if needed to start on the right flank.
While Valentin Barco has joined Sevilla on loan, Brighton's £40m club-record signing Georginio Rutter is in contention to make his debut after joining from Leeds United on Tuesday, but he will likely begin as a substitute as Joao Pedro provides support in attack for ex-Man United striker Welbeck.
Brighton & Hove Albion possible starting lineup:
Steele; Veltman, Van Hecke, Dunk, Hinshelwood; Milner, Wieffer; Minteh, Pedro, Mitoma; Welbeck
Manchester United
As for the Red Devils, Luke Shaw (calf), Tyrell Malacia (knee), Leny Yoro (foot) and Rasmus Hojlund (hamstring) all remain sidelined, as does Victor Lindelof who is nursing a toe injury.
Ten Hag could be tempted to stick with the same back four of Noussair Mazraoui, Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez and Diogo Dalot that kept a clean sheet against Fulham, but new signing Matthijs de Ligt will be pushing to make his full debut at centre-back at the expense of Maguire.
Zirkzee will likely be rewarded for scoring his first Man United goal as a substitute last time out with a start against Brighton, meaning Bruno Fernandes would drop back into his favoured number 10 role as Mason Mount takes a place on the substitutes' bench. Alejandro Garnacho, meanwhile, could be recalled ahead of either Amad Diallo or Marcus Rashford to start on either flank.
Manchester United possible starting lineup:
Onana; Mazraoui, Maguire, Martinez, Dalot; Casemiro, Mainoo; Amad, Fernandes, Garnacho; Zirkzee
Prediction: Brighton & Hove Albion 2-2 Manchester United
