Manchester United face their first big test of credentials in the off-season as they face Atletico Madrid in a friendly on Saturday. This match between the ‘Red Devils’ and the ‘Rojiblancos’ will be played at the neutral venue of Strawberry Arena for the Snapdragon Cup. With the two teams still early in their pre-season preparations, our prediction backs goals for both teams.
United still have three more friendlies after this match, with PSG, Leeds, and AC Milan lined up before they play Hull in the opening weekend of the 2026-27 Premier League. Atletico play Manchester City and Marseille in their remaining friendlies before starting their La Liga campaign against Malaga.
A 5-0 thumping win over Rosenborg last weekend gave the ‘Red Devils’ their first victory of the off-season. It was preceded by a 1-0 loss to Wrexham, as Michael Carrick’s men look to gain momentum before bigger tests against the likes of PSG. United are likely to once again bank on academy stars, with all eyes on JJ Gabriel.
Atletico won 4-1 against Getafe on Wednesday in their first friendly of the pre-season. A brace for Ademola Lookman led the charge as the ‘Rojiblancos’ started on a high. Having finished last season with three defeats in their last five matches (W2), Atletico will be eager to build on this result.

Our Manchester United vs Atletico Madrid Prediction
This will be the first big test of the pre-season for United, after playing Wrexham and Rosenborg. Atletico are also early in their preparations, having played Getafe this week. Atletico are looking for a reset after a disappointing season last year, where even their impregnable defensive performances gave way.
United are unlikely to have a senior defensive unit, with most of the regulars still to link up with the side. This game could end up with goals, so our Manchester United vs Atletico Madrid prediction is BTTS.
