​Brighton boss Hughton wants Man Utd repeat

Chris Hughton wants his Brighton side to repeat the form that saw them defeat Manchester United at home earlier in the season.

The Seagulls have only won a single game in their first seven in this Premier League campaign.

A home game against West Ham United is a good opportunity for the team to get back on track.

And Hughton knows that it is a record that much change if they want to stay in the division.

He said to The Argus: "It seems to be a bit of a habit where teams come to the Amex having hit good form, which is what West Ham have done but it's probably no surprise.

"It was only going to be a matter of time and it heightens the efforts we have to make sure we put into the game.

"We know what we have to do to get results against any team. We will have to get back to those type of (United) levels and use the fact that we are now back at home.

"With due respect, going away to Man City in our last game, it would be a big achievement to get something in that game. We have to use the fact we are now back at home."
