Atalanta's final Champions League group match against Villarreal was postponed on Wednesday because of heavy snow.
The winner of the Group F encounter in northern Italy will progress to the Champions League knockout stages alongside Manchester United, who have already won the group.
English referee Anthony Taylor called off the match having at first delayed the kick-off for 20 minutes.
Players were ready, pitchside, in their kits, but the snow kept falling, persuading the officials to make their decision.
