Follow Mail Sport's live blog for the latest live, score, team news and updates from the 3pm Premier League games including Manchester United vs Brighton, Everton vs Tottenham and Nottingham Forest vs Southampton. By Ryan Walker. United return to Old Trafford today for the first time since club legend Denis Law passed away at the age of 84 on Friday and supporters are paying touching tributes ahead of this afternoon's match.
The fabled United Trinity statue - featuring Law alongside Sir Bobby Charlton and George Best - in the stadium's main foreground has been protected with wreaths being laid by players, club officials and other representatives. Now supporters are paying their respects to the great icon with a moment of remembrance set to take place before kick-off.
It says a lot about the running of Manchester United and the efforts of former manager Erik ten Hag that they come into today's contest knowing the very best result won't even move them out the bottom half of the table. Brighton are the visitors at Old Trafford this afternoon and Fabian Hurzeler's side arrive at England's biggest club stadium seeking to pull off an audacious double having already beaten United earlier in the season.
A win for the hosts today would be another step forward under Ruben Amorim as he tries to build confidence and consistency in a squad that has lacked both in recent years. Defeat against Brighton and United will remain just 10 points above the relegation zone!.
