Match Preview
While both clubs are languishing near the bottom of the Premier League table — United sitting 16th, Spurs 17th — their Europa League form has been stellar.
- Tottenham Hotspur: Under Ange Postecoglou, Spurs finished fourth in the league phase and battled past AZ Alkmaar, Eintracht Frankfurt, and Bodo/Glimt to reach the final. Spurs have lifted this trophy twice before — when it was known as the UEFA Cup — in 1971 and 1984.
- Manchester United: United edged out Tottenham in the group stage by one position and have relied on their continental experience to carry them through a turbulent season. A Europa League title would mark a bright spot in an otherwise dismal campaign.
