Quotes
“The team's on a little unbeaten run now. Saturday was a big step in the right direction," Brighton striker Danny Welbeck said after scoring the winning goal against Newcastle.
"I think there's been plenty of occasions where we've gone a goal up here at the AMEX and we've not followed through with the three points. It was nice to do that. It's a testament to the character and belief of the boys on the pitch and everybody when they equalised to push on and get that winning goal.
"That's something we've worked on as a group and with the coaching staff, so it was nice to see that come to fruition."
Head-to-Head
Brighton claimed a 3-1 win over United in their last meeting in the league, which was in January 2025 at American Express (AMEX) Stadium.
As a result, the Seagulls are undefeated in their last two Premier League games against the Red Devils, having recorded two consecutive wins.
