The Red Devils have won all six games in all competitions with the Norwegian at the helm, surpassing Matt Busby’s record, and victory on Saturday will see him equal the longest Premier League winning streak by a manager from the beginning of his reign.
Carlo Ancelotti and Pep Guardiola both won their first six league outings with Chelsea and Manchester City respectively.
United have edged up the table over recent weeks and could leapfrog Arsenal into fifth with victory while they head into the clash just six points shy of Chelsea in fourth.
Solskjaer has opted for an attacking approach and he will be boosted by the return of Alexis Sanchez following a minor injury.
Eric Bailly could also come back into the frame after completing a suspension but Marouane Fellaini has picked up a calf injury and will join Chris Smalling and Marcos Rojo on the sidelines.
Brighton face the difficult task of trying to stop rejuvenated United but travel in confident mood after a good recent run.
Chris Hughton’s men have lost just once in their last five outings across all competitions, having fallen to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Liverpool last weekend, but they have only won one of their last six away games in the Premier League.
Midfielder Yves Bissouma will need to be assessed before being recalled to the matchday squad after missing the loss to Liverpool with a hip injury.
Bernardo and Jose Izquierdo are unavailable for Hughton as they continue to nurse hamstring and knee issues respectively.
United have never lost at home to Brighton in 10 previous meetings and they have come through the last four clashes at Old Trafford without conceding.
