All eyes will be at Sane Mame Stadium tonight in Bilbao Spain as two English Giants meet to determine who won the coveted Europa League for 2024/2025 season
The match is expected to be explosive as both teams are direly in need of the trophy as it would guarantee them a place in next year’s Champions League
For the Manchester side grabbing the event will definitely save their disastrous league season going by how they have only earned 39 points in the thirty seven matches they so far played in the premiership
While on the other hand their opponents Tottenham Hotspurs of London who are also in a horrific situation in the league lifting the cup will help in saving Coach Ange Postecoglou his job as anything can happen provided he failed to do the needful
Although a phrase says experience matters in a situation like this but as far as the round leather game is concerned anything can happen in the course of the ninety minutes game as it is not mathematics
But while Tottenham is contending with a number of injured players notable among them James Maddison and Klusevki on the other hand the Manchester side have less injury issues
But on some occasions when luck is on your side the question of number of injuries did not arise
Going by recent games, Tottenham have defeated Manchester United three games in a row
According to some pundits this is nothing to write home about if their come back against Lyon in the quarter final stage of the competition is anything to go by
On the other hand some analysts were of the view that this year is specifically meant for those that have not won trophies for years citing Bologna in Italy, Crystal palace in England and Tottenham eighteen years
As we await the kick off time which is eight o’clock local time winner of the event will cart home a giant trophy beside collecting eighty million Euro for the superb effort
Would it be Manchester United or Tottenham Hotspur nobody could predict the result until the referee blew the final whistle
