Ten Hag names team to face Brighton

Both sides won during the opening round of matches, with the Reds defeating Fulham 1-0 before Everton were dismissed 3-0 at home by the Seagulls, seven days ago.

The 12:30 BST kick-off presents a tough challenge but we won this fixture last season, in our previous Premier League assignment on the road, triumphing 2-0 at the Amex Stadium on the final day of the 2023/24 campaign, with goals from Diogo Dalot and Rasmus Hojlund.

Hojlund, of course, is currently absent through injury so Bruno Fernandes is likely to be deployed in a 'false-nine' role as Ten Hag has retained the same XI that started against the Cottagers on the opening night.
