The most recent official confrontation between the two teams was on November 6, 1991, in the round of 16 of the 1991-92 European Cup Winners’ Cup. Atlético de Madrid had just won (3-0) in the first leg and the tie (1-1) at Old Trafford allowed the locals to reach the next round. Mark Hughes made the hosts dream at the start of the contest, but Bernd Schuster scored the equalizer.
ATHLETIC MADRID
The rojiblanco team has cut the fire after adding two victories against Getafe (4-3) and Osasuna (0-3) in LaLiga after a dynamic that had led them to accumulate five defeats in eight games in it. It arrives with better sensations to the continental competition.
It is the fifth best venue in Spain with 24 points out of a possible 36, achieved thanks to seven wins and three draws, in addition to accumulating two losses. It is the sixth highest scorer (21) and the seventh that fits the least (12) along with Elche.
Diego Pablo Simeone will be without Benjamin Lacomte, Daniel Wass, Thomas Lemar, Antoine Griezmann or Matheus Cunha.
MANCHESTER UNITED
The Red Devils they have put on track two consecutive wins after three games without knowing the victory, so the situation with respect to their rival has certain parallels. They beat Brighton & Hove Albion (2-0) and Leeds United (2-4) to climb back into the top four.
They are the fourth best visitor to England, with 23 points out of a possible 39, achieved thanks to six wins and five draws, as well as two losses. He is the third top scorer away from home (23) and the tenth that concedes the least (18).
Ralf Rangnick will be without Raphaël Varane, Éric Bailly, Nemanja Matic, Mason Greenwood or Edinson Cavani.
ATHLETIC MADRID (1-4-4-2)
Jan Oblak – Reinildo Mandava, José María Giménez, Stefan Savic, SIme Vrsaljko – Yannick Ferreira Carrasco, Jorge “Koke” Resurrection, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Marcos Llorente – Joao Félix, Luis Suárez
MANCHESTER UNITED (1-4-2-3-1)
David De Gea – Luke Shaw, Harry Maguire, Victor Lindelof, Aaron Wan-Bissaka – Frederico “Fred” Rodrigues, Paul Pogba – Jadon Sancho, Bruno Fernandes, Marcus Rashford – Cristiano Ronaldo
Both clubs are beginning to pick up good dynamics after overcoming unexpected results that had taken them away from the same goal: to qualify for the next Champions League. After reversing the situation, they have returned to occupy fourth place in their respective competitions, so this clash can confirm the good moment. We believe that Cristiano Ronaldo will be especially motivated by his merengue past and by how good the rojiblancos are at him, something that could decide the match.
Prediction: Atletico Madrid 1 – 2 Manchester United
