MAN UTD are in Italy to face Atalanta in a crucial Champions League group match.
The Red Devils are top of the group after coming from 2-0 down to beat the Italians 3-2 through a late Cristiano Ronaldo header at Old Trafford.
However, there is still work to do with Atalanta sitting second on four points, level with third placed Villarreal, and fourth placed Young Boys still in contention on three points.
Ahead of the match, Cristiano Ronaldo has issued a rallying cry.
He wrote on Instagram: “Back to Italy, a country that welcomed me and my family so well, an amazing place that will be forever in my heart.
“I know from experience that it’s never easy to play in Bergamo against a team such as Atalanta, but we will do our absolute best to keep the first place in our group.
“This is Champions League and we are Manchester United! We are where we belong! Let’s go, Devils!”
