THE PREDICTION
It has been a turbulent few weeks for Man Utd and boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with the 0-5 drubbing at the hands of Liverpool still fresh in the minds of the fans, despite their victory at Spurs over the weekend. They sit top of their Champions League group at least, thanks in large part to the last-gasp contributions of Cristiano Ronaldo, but they were largely outplayed by Atalanta a fortnight ago despite snatching all three points. It will be interesting to see how Ole approaches this one given that a change in system resulted in a victory on Saturday, but regardless, it would be no surprise to see both teams score again here, as that has been the case in eight of Atalanta’s last nine games in all competitions.
