Como vs Man United weather latest as Champions League fixture faces postponement threat

Manchester United's Champions League match against Como 1907 faces potential postponement due to heavy rainfall across the Lombardy region. An orange weather alert has been issued, with forecasts predicting up to 64mm of rain and potential lightning before kick-off at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia. Despite a waterlogged pitch, Como officials remain optimistic the game will go ahead, while Manchester United manager Michael Carrick dismissed concerns over the weather conditions.

United enter the contest under pressure following a difficult start to their season, with Carrick missing six players from Tuesday's training session, including Marcus Rashford, Kobbie Mainoo, and Lisandro Martinez. Como, managed by former Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas, features former United defender Willy Kambwala in their squad.
