Manchester United are preparing to take on La Liga champions Atletico Madrid in a tense Champions League knockout encounter in Spain on Wednesday night.

Even though the competition’s famous ‘away goal’ rule has recently been scrapped, the Red Devils, led by German interim boss Ralf Rangnick, will be desperate to take a good result away from the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium.

Despite the magnitude of the clash, one person who is feeling confident is legendary former manager Sir Alex Ferguson, who while speaking to fans recently, gave a remarkable score prediction.

The ex-Scottish boss, when asked for his thoughts on Wednesday’s blockbuster European tie, said: “Hopefully [Man United will win].

“I will settle for 5-0.”
