It is also difficult to predict whether Tottenham will make it to the final because they will face Bodo/Glimt, who eliminated Lazio. They will have a difficult team in both matches. Also, every team that makes it to the semi-finals is very strong. Manchester United's opponent is of course more difficult. If Athletic Bilbao eliminates Manchester United, they will be champions in the final. However, I cannot say the same thing if Manchester United makes it to the final.
In my opinion, Man United or Bilbao will win the UEL trophy this season because Tottenham and Bodo/Glimt don't have a winning mentality. Bodo/Glimt have caused a major upset in the UEL this season after knocking out Lazio, but Tottenham are also very ambitious to qualify for the final because the chance to qualify for European competition through the League standings is closed for them.
It is interesting that if Bilbao win the title, they will automatically qualify for the UCL next season. But if they finish in the top four of La Liga, will their quota be given to the team that finishes in 5th place?
