With four points from their first two matches, Brighton & Hove Albion have the chance to start a top-flight campaign with a three-match unbeaten run for the first time.

Martial could become the fourth player to score in each of Man Utd's first three matches of a Premier League campaign, after Dwight Yorke in 1999/00, Ruud van Nistelrooy in 2005/06 and Wayne Rooney in 2011/12.

Sheffield United are aiming to win a seventh match out of 11 at home in the Premier League (D2 L2) and to keep up their run of scoring in every match in that period.
