Horse Racing Brighton vs Manchester United Bet Builder Tips: Saturday May 7th
I’ve gone for a Saturday afternoon bet builder at odds of 10.00, as Brighton and Manchester United square off on the South Coast and although this has an element of dead rubber, there is still something to play for both sides.
Admittedly, that something is not huge in the grand scheme of Premier League things and with Brighton looking to earn a top-ten finish, they will look to build on last weekend’s impressive showing at Wolves.
One that saw Graham Potter’s men win by three goals to nil and conversely that was the same score that Manchester United beat Brentford by at the start of this week – a result that further boosted Brighton’s bid to stay in the top half.
However, that win at Old Trafford would also give Manchester United something of a timely boost and although entry to the Champions League has all but been closed off, a top-six finish still needs to be guaranteed.
Because in doing so, it would at least offer the consolation of a Europa League invite for next season and with Erik ten Hag taking the managerial reins in the summer, there is no reason why this competition cannot be won.

Then again, conquering the second tier of Europe is something that will have to wait a while and first interim manager Ralf Rangnick must take his temporary charges to the South Coast, as the pursuit of league points continues.
While if the Red Devils can play as they did at the start of the week, they should have little issue in blowing over Brighton and although that showing against Brentford was very positive, it has also left supporters scratching their heads.
Not only that, but they will be asking where such a performance has come from and perhaps with the pressure off and a return to Europe’s premier club competition no longer a going concern, the shackles have been removed.
Which could be bad news for Brighton at the weekend and with the visitors priced at 2.45 for an away win, there is an element of risk equalling reward – especially as punters have had their fingers burnt by United many times before.
Therefore, a draw on Sunday at 3.50 cannot be ignored either and even more so, when you consider that Brighton have reached a stalemate in a joint-highest 14 of their 35 Premier league outings this season.

Before the weekend, I have plumped for another draw for Brighton, as Manchester United stutter on the road. With that said, I think Cristiano Ronaldo will at least find some personal joy and this will be alongside eight or more corners and at least two cards.

WHAT IS A BET BUILDER?
A bet builder is a kind of accumulator bet solely focussed on one match. A standard acca features multiple selections across different selections combined together into one bet. If one selection loses, the whole bet loses. A bet builder is similar but each selection is placed on the same match. Similar to the American prop bet, the bet builder goes into detail on a single match. Common selections include match outcome, total goals, cards, corners, and players to score.
