Atletico Madrid finished runners-up in Group B with 7 points to secure their place in the knockouts of the Champions League.

The Spanish side hasn’t been able to replicate last season’s title winning run this time and aim to bring their A game to the plate in the UEFA Champions League.

A win over Osasuna on the weekend was the perfect preparation for this seismic clash.

On the other hand, Manchester United finished table toppers in Group F with 11 points from 6 matches; including 3 wins.

The Red Devils like Atletico haven’t been at their best in the Champions League but need to show it now as this is their last opportunity for silverware this season.

The visitors have an ace up their sleeve in Ronaldo, Atletico’s arch-nemesis.

Atletico has certain players missing out due to injuries and performances have been inconsistent.

The same goes with the visitors, but they have a more potent attacking unit in them ready to fire. Ronaldo remains a threat once again in his favourite competition.

We expect a closely fought match with the visitors winning it.

Players to watch out for: Felix, Correa, Sancho and Ronaldo.
