Manchester United end the 2023/24 Premier League with a final day trip to Brighton & Hove Albion on May 19.
United head to the south coast in eighth place in the table, and if they remain there at full time, Erik ten Hag will secure the unwanted record of the Red Devils’ lowest ever Premier League finish.
However, victory could see them edge up into seventh, if Newcastle fail to win at Brentford, which would mean a UEFA Europa Conference League spot for the 2024/25 campaign.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch it across the world, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.

Man United vs. Brighton lineups, team news
Ten Hag is still grappling with a lengthy injury list but Lisandro Martinez was deemed fit enough to start a league match for the first time since February. It’s a strong lineup for the Red Devils today, perhaps hinting at a team and system that could be used in next week’s FA Cup final.
Man United (4-2-2-2, right to left): Onana (GK) — Wan-Bissaka, Casemiro, Martinez, Dalot — Amrabat, Mainoo — Garnacho, Diallo — Fernandes, McTominay.
Man United subs (9): Bayindir, Rashford, Hojlund, Eriksen, Varane, Antony, Evans, Kambwala, Collyer
Roberto De Zerbi is also dealing with a host of injury issues ahead of the final weekend with captain Lewis Dunk missing out. With nothing left to play for, the Italian coach gives some of his fringe players a chance, with Valentin Barco in at left-back, Jason Steele in goal, and Adam Lallana granted a farewell appearance.
Brighton (4-2-3-1, right to left): Steele (GK) — Gross, Webster, Igor, Barco — Baleba, Moder— Adingra, Lallana, Joao Pedro — Welbeck.
Brighton subs (9): Verbruggen, Lamptey, Enciso, Gilmour, Fati, Buonanotte, Offiah, Peupion, Baker-Boaitey
Man United vs. Brighton prediction
Whilst Brighton cannot challenge for a European spot, they will want to finish above local rivals Bournemouth, who are only behind them on goal difference. United could be torn between wanting to avoid a lowly eighth place finish and a potentially unwanted spot in the Europa Conference League.
United still have an alternative route into Europe for next season if they can beat Manchester City in the FA Cup final, and qualify for the Europa League.
Prediction: Man United 1-1 Brighton
