Michael Carrick has a massive chance to make a statement of intent as Manchester United travel to beautiful Lake Como for an early Champions League match on Wednesday.
The Red Devils have had a rocky season so far, sitting 13th in the Premier League table with just one victory in seven domestic matches. They looked strong in their Champions League opener against Sabah at home, but then were humbled by Atletico Madrid at the Metropolitano last week.
Como, meanwhile, have been one of Italy's most fascinating stories the last two years, qualifying for the Champions League for the first time in club history this season and in the hunt again as they sit fifth in the Serie A table through seven matches. They won their opening Champions League game against RB Leipzig in flying fashion back in September, but fell to Dutch side Feyenoord last week.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times and the weekly schedule.
