League position: 13th . This was Manchester United's first defeat in their last 32 home games in all competitions since 8 September 2022 against Real Sociedad in the UEFA Europa League. . United had now lost three or more of their opening five games of a league season for the first time since 1989-90 in League Division One. . The Red Devils had now conceded more than one goal in four consecutive league games within the same season for the first time since April 1979. . Rasmus Højlund scored in the 40th minute but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to the ball going out of play.3 Brighton and Hove Albion
