United have lost seven of 12 Champions League games under Solskajer
The Red Devils have won once in their last four at home
Atalanta have won five and drawn one of their seven Champions League trips
Ilicic has scored five times across his last three games
Trouble for Ole?

Manchester United suffered yet another setback at the weekend, with an abject display resulting in a 4-2 loss at a Leicester side who haven’t got going themselves this season. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s United look devoid of fight and ideas, a recipe for a sacking at most clubs.

Of course, the United boss has his defenders and the club seem committed to him – but it’s hard to seriously claim that United’s fortunes will turn. Cristiano Ronaldo was their big banner signing but they haven’t stepped up going forward with him in the side and alarming gaps remain in their side. The pressure is certainly on Solskajer heading into this one.

United’s European struggles

To make matters worse for the hosts, they have a dire record in Europe’s top tournament. Manchester United have lost 58% of their Champions League games under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (7/12). That’s the worst record of many manager who has led an English team in 10+ games in the competition.

United did get a win in their last game in Europe, but they trailed 1-0 at home to Villarreal before late heroics from Ronaldo bailed them out after another ordinary display. The Red Devils come into this game having won just once in their last four home games (L2) and it’s hard to have high hopes for them this week.

Atalanta’s road warriors

United’s stars may be struggling, but Atalanta continue to exceed expectations with a middling Serie A budget. La Dea sit sixth in the table after continuing an unbeaten away start (W3 D2) with a 4-1 win at Empoli at the weekend.

Atalanta have only lost one of their last seven away games in the Champions League (a last 16 defeat Real Madrid in March), winning five and drawing the other. The Italian side have scored 17 goals across this run of se

在索尔斯克亚的带领下，曼联输掉了12场欧冠比赛中的7场
红魔在过去四场主场比赛中只赢过一场
亚特兰大赢得了五场比赛，并在他们的七次欧冠之旅中抽到一场
在过去的三场比赛中，伊利西奇已经进了五球
Ole麻烦吗?

曼联在周末遭遇了又一次挫折，以一场糟糕的表现以4-2负于本赛季表现不佳的莱斯特队。索尔斯克亚的曼联看起来缺乏斗志和想法，这是大多数俱乐部解雇索尔斯克亚的秘诀。

当然，曼联有自己的后卫，俱乐部似乎也对他很忠诚——但很难说曼联的命运会改变。克里斯蒂亚诺·罗纳尔多是他们的招牌球员，但他们并没有在他的带领下向前迈进，他们的队伍仍然存在巨大的差距。索尔斯克亚面临着巨大的压力。

曼联的欧洲的斗争

对于东道主来说，更糟糕的是，他们在这一欧洲顶级赛事上有着糟糕的记录。在索尔斯克亚(7胜12负)的带领下，曼联输掉了58%的欧冠比赛。这是许多带领英格兰队参加10场以上比赛的教练中最糟糕的记录。

曼联在上一场欧战中确实取得了一场胜利，但他们在主场1-0落后于比利亚雷亚尔，c罗在最后时刻的英勇表现挽救了他们。红魔在最近的四场主场比赛中只赢了一场，所以很难对他们寄予厚望。

亚特兰大的道路勇士

曼联的球星们可能正在苦苦挣扎，但亚特兰大以中等的预算继续超出预期。在周末4-1战胜恩波利的比赛中，拉迪阿延续了客场不败的开局(W3 D2)，在积分榜上排名第六。

亚特兰大在最近的七场欧冠客场比赛中只输掉了一场(在3月的16场比赛中击败了皇家马德里)，五场胜利，另一场平局。这支意大利球队在这一轮比赛中已经打进了17个进球
