Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri has said that Cristiano Ronaldo will score against his former side Manchester United on Wednesday night.
Allegri has backed his forward to find the net when Juventus hosts United at home in the Champions League.
The former Real Madrid star is yet to score in European competition, having been sent off against Valencia before helping Juve to beat United 1-0 at Old Trafford.
Allegri said Ronaldo, the all-time leading goalscorer in the Champions League – would deliver against United.
“He will score [on Wednesday]. He didn’t play the first match, he didn’t play the second, he played only one match. And he provided an assist. I mean, it’s not like he played many Champions League matches so far,” said Allegri.
The Italian giants hold a perfect record in Group H and will seal their place in the knockout stage if they avoid defeat against United.
