Tottenham vs. Manchester United: Preview, team news, prediction for Europa League final
For the sixth time in history, a European final will be contested by two English sides as Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United will face off in Spain on Wednesday to determine the winner of the Europa League.
Spurs have been in two all-English finals before, winning the UEFA Cup in 1972 against Wolves and falling to Liverpool in the 2019 Champions League final. Meanwhile, the Red Devils have only come up against an English opponent once in a continental final, outlasting Chelsea in a 2008 Champions League final that required penalty kicks to decide a winner.

Neither club can claim an impressive season in the run-up to Wednesday's match, as they occupy the spots immediately above the three relegated sides in the Premier League standings. With both clubs enduring a woeful campaign, this final represents an opportunity to salvage some glory in an otherwise forgottable year — and also earn a spot in next season's Champions League.

Tottenham vs. Manchester United: What the managers are saying
Ruben Amorim, Manchester United
(via BBC)
"It's a big, massive club with fans around the world. It is a big brand. We just need to be focused and do things in the right way so I don't see it like that. I'm always playing for more than myself. I'm coaching for my players, staff and especially the fans."
Ange Postecoglou, Tottenham
(via BBC)
"It is a great prize. You know the significance of Champions League qualification and what comes with it. You get to play against the best on the continent. But the club has been in the Champions League before, they have not won a trophy for a long time - so that is the most important thing."
Tottenham vs. Manchester United predicition
Spurs are going for a clean sweep against United, having won their three other matches against the Red Devils this season. With neither side in great form, this match is a coin flip and Tottenham have shown that they can top this version of Man United.
Prediction: Tottenham 2-1 Manchester United
