Manchester United’s line-up for the FA Cup clash with Brighton and Hove Albion has been confirmed.

United beat Brighton 4-2 in the Premier League at Old Trafford earlier this season, with Ruben Amorim in charge.
Darren Fletcher has since taken over as interim manager, and this is his second match in charge following the 2-2 draw with Burnley.

Who are you excited to see play?
Fletcher in charge
It is uncertain whether Darren Fletcher will still be in charge for the Manchester derby next week and beyond, with United exploring options.
Benjamin Sesko netted twice in the last game and will be looking to build on his promising performance.
Kobbie Mainoo has been picked to start, it is his first start since the end of August when United lost to Grimsby in the Carabao Cup.
Luke Shaw misses out on the squad entirely, with Casemiro also dropping to the bench.
Ahead of this game, Fletcher was asked whether 15-year-old sensation JJ Gabriel could be asked to step up and make his debut, as he is eligible to do so.
Fletcher explained he believes it is too early for Gabriel, despite enthusiasm from United fans to see him involved.
