Atalanta vs Manchester United Prediction

Atalanta are one of the most entertaining teams in Europe, and they nearly produced a memorable win against Manchester United a few days ago. They are missing some important players, but they remain one of the better teams in Italy right now.

Manchester United, on the other hand, were in crisis mode following their 5-0 los to arch-rivals Liverpool last week. The win over Tottenham Hotspur will give Ole Gunnar Solskjaer some much-needed breathing space. The Norwegian looked likely to leave the club following the Liverpool loss, and there have been reports that Antonio Conte remains interested.

Manchester United should win, although you never know with the Red Devils.

Prediction: Atalanta 1-2 Manchester United
