The outcome means United cannot be toppled from the group summit after our excellent 2-0 win at Villarreal. Although the Spanish outfit are three points behind us, the head-to-head favours the Reds following our two victories over the Yellow Submarine.

We welcome Young Boys to Old Trafford on 8 December (20:00 GMT kick-off), hoping to avenge our defeat to them in the opening fixture in the group. The visitors will still have an outside chance of gaining Europa League qualification but cannot now make the knockout stages of the Champions League.

Our next Premier League outing after the tie is at Norwich City on the Saturday (11 December, 17:30 GMT kick-off).

Atalanta must win at home to Villarreal to take second spot from Unai Emery’s men.
