Tottenham and Manchester United clash in Bilbao on Wednesday night in a Europa League final neither side expected to reach – but one that now offers a golden route to Champions League football and some long-overdue silverware.
While both have endured miserable domestic campaigns, United’s Europa League form has been outstanding. Erik ten Hag’s side are unbeaten in 14 games in the competition and have knocked out strong sides including Athletic Club, Lyon, and Real Sociedad en route to the final. In contrast, Spurs have scraped through by the skin of their teeth and look short of ideas in the final third.
Prediction 1: Man Utd to Win – 7/4
United’s European pedigree and experience in major finals could prove vital here. While their Premier League form has been inconsistent, they’ve found momentum in Europe and look more capable of handling the occasion. Spurs haven’t lifted a trophy since 2008, and questions remain over their ability to perform under pressure.
Prediction 2: Bruno Fernandes to Score Anytime – 11/4
Bruno Fernandes has been a rare bright spark in United’s season. The Portuguese playmaker is joint-top scorer in the Europa League with seven goals, including strikes in both legs of the semi-final. He thrives on the big stage and remains their most likely match-winner.
Prediction 3: Correct Score – Man Utd 2-1 – 17/2
This scoreline offers solid value considering the trends. United have scored exactly two goals in five Europa League matches this term but have conceded in 11 of their 14 games. Spurs, meanwhile, have let in exactly two in their last two fixtures and struggled to create much themselves. A 2-1 win for United fits both sides’ recent profiles and could be worth a shot in the correct score market.
