Tottenham are the slight underdogs as they bid to salvage a disastrous season by winning the Europa League.
Man United and Tottenham meet in the Europa League final tonight, with both sides desperate to end turbulent domestic campaigns on a high.

But a European trophy - and with it, qualification for next season’s Champions League - would go a long way in restoring pride for both of these sides.

Man United are a best price of 19/10 with AKBets to win in 90 minutes and 13/10 with Sky Bet to lift the trophy. However, despite their clear favouritism for the match, Tottenham’s dominance over their fellow finalists this season will give them belief they can secure their first trophy in 17 years.
After a domestic campaign that has unravelled in recent months, Tottenham now have a chance to flip the script with a shot at European glory – and, crucially, a route back into the Champions League.
Under-fire manager Ange Postecoglou’s side have endured a brutal run of eight defeats in their last 11 league games, leaving them just one place above the relegation zone.
But silverware in Bilbao wouldn’t just rescue their season and importantly it would reshape the narrative around Postecoglou’s tenure at the club so far.
They head into the Europa League final with a strong psychological advantage, having already beaten Man United three times this season – including a thrilling 4–3 win in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.
Remarkably, Spurs have never trailed in any of those meetings. With that dominance fresh in the memory, they'll believe this is their final to win.
This will be Tottenham’s second European final in six years and their fourth in the UEFA Cup/Europa League. Having lifted the trophy in 1972 and again in 1984, victory in Bilbao would end a 41-year wait for continental silverware and deliver only the third European title in the club’s history.
