Struggling Manchester United face another tough test as they travel to the Metropolitano to take on Atletico Madrid in the Champions League.

Michael Carrick is overseeing a tough start to the season for United with the Red Devils having managed just two wins in eight matches across all competitions.

They were denied a win by Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday despite being a goal and a man up in the second half. Bryan Mbeumo gave United the lead before Roberto De Zerbi’s winless North Londoners equalised in stoppage time via Dominic Solanke.

Diego Simeone’s Atletico began their Champions League campaign with a 2-1 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield, having taken the lead in that game, but they have since gone on to win four on the bounce.

Los Rojiblancos defeated Deportivo Alaves 2-1 last Saturday after heading into the international break on the back of beating Real Madrid by the same scoreline at the Metropolitano.

Atletico Madrid vs. Man United prediction

We reckon Atletico will inflict further pain on United here.

Atletico have been very different when playing at home in both Europe and domestically in recent seasons and that has continued again this time around. They are imperious and extremely difficult to play against at the Metropolitano.

United are verging into yet another crisis and it has been a woeful start, with their two wins coming against newly promoted Ipswich Town and then against Azeri champions Sabah in this competition — and there is nothing to suggest they can get past a team of the standard of Atletico.

Score Prediction: Atletico Madrid 2, Man United 0 (+1200 at FanDuel)

Atletico Madrid vs. Man United best bets

We’ve picked four betting angles for Atletico Madrid vs. Man United.

Atletico Madrid should be backed here, not only given how average United have been at the start of this season, but also given how strong Atletico can be at home.

Atletico have been frustratingly chaotic in recent seasons and so United may have opportunities on the counter-attack, but this is more a case of the hosts simply being a better and more rounded side than their opponents.

Atletico have an abundance of options in the final third, but Canada international striker Jonathan David has found some good form since moving from Juventus this summer and, expected to start, he should test Senne Lammens here.

Pablo Barrios and Koke are supreme on the ball and can often be dominant in possession. Should the game go as expected and Atletico find themselves in a position where simply giving Barrios the ball to protect their lead is the plan. As a result, Youri Tielemans may well be left chasing a lot and the Belgium captain to commit a foul is therefore a decent shout.

Building on the feeling that Atletico are likely going to have much the better of it and try to suffocate United early on, a lot of pressure from the hosts should also bring about a few corners, so over 4.5 corners is decent value.
