Manchester United take on Atletico Madrid at Old Trafford with their Champions League Round of 16 perched on a knife edge.

The Red Devils dug deep in the Spanish capital during the first leg. They weathered storms before super-sub Anthony Elanga struck a terrific equaliser to level up the tie at 1-1.

Another heroic display, this time from veteran star Cristiano Ronaldo, against Tottenham at the weekend should give fans hope their side can turn up in the big games.

For all their notoriety on the continent, Diego Simeone's Atletico have only gone beyond the Round of 16 once in five editions of the tournament.

They have only won four of their last 15 Champions League matches across all stages of this season and 2020/21 and while they certainly boast a chance here, their progression is not a given.

Our prediction: Man Utd v Atletico Madrid

On the face of it, Atletico will be the favourites in the eyes of many here, but their reputation may be preceding them in continental competitions.

Our view of Atletico is that they're a dogged, determined, compact unit with a near-impenetrable defence. In fact, they've conceded more La Liga goals than 11 other teams this season.

Atletico have only kept three clean sheets in two seasons in the Champions League and United have shown they can produce a big display in moments of need. Ronaldo will smell blood.

Our prediction: Man Utd 2-1 Atletico Madrid (8/1 at bet365)
