Manchester United need to weather the storm as Champions League fixtures on TV return to screens this week.
United host Italian unit Atalanta in a tough test at Old Trafford amid mounting pressure on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s shoulders.
The Norwegian boss has come under fire following four defeats in United’s last seven games across all competitions, against Young Boys, West Ham, Aston Villa and Leicester.
Fans were hoping for United to kick on during 2021/22 with Cristiano Ronaldo paving the way, but he has gone off the boil since a ferocious start.
Atalanta sit sixth in a competitive Serie A top order, just one victory adrift of Inter in third.

Our prediction: Man Utd v Atalanta
Manchester United need a win. Defeat here would see them slip four points away from top of Group F and depending on results elsewhere, they could also be three points short of the top two.
That is simply not good enough, especially in a relatively favourable group, for a side that was expected to seriously challenge for silverware this term.
Solskjaer can start to quell the growing pressure with any kind of victory here, but whatever happens, all is not well at Old Trafford right now.
Our prediction: Man Utd 2-1 Atalanta (15/2 at bet365).
