Danny Welbeck is set to start for Brighton & Hove Albion in Sunday's Premier League meeting with his former club Manchester United.

The United academy product has started Albion's last two games, scoring in one and assisting in the other to help his side to rare back-to-back victories.

With Aaron Connolly sustaining an injury on international duty with Republic of Ireland, Welbeck seems likely to partner Neal Maupay in attack at Old Trafford.

Brighton have a few other injury issues to contend with, such as the absence of Florin Andone, Tariq Lamptey and Solly March, while Adam Webster is almost certain to miss out.

Graham Potter started Jakub Moder at left wing-back for the 3-0 win over Newcastle United last time out, and the Poland international is likely to get the nod again here.

Elsewhere, Adam Lallana, Yves Bissouma and Leandro Trossard, who impressed for Belgium during the international break, are expected to link up again in central midfield.

Brighton possible starting lineup: Sanchez; White, Dunk, Burn; Gross, Bissouma, Lallana, Moder; Trossard; Maupay, Welbeck
