Why is Manchester United heavily tipped to win this Europa as if this is some walk in the park
3 games away from lifting the cup and it's anybodies trophy, but some pundits say this is mockery to the competition for a team like Manchester United who are close to bottom getting that golden ticket to crash the party for Champions League football, not sure if such has happened before.. but we shall wait and see what waits them tommorow.
Manchester United barely beat Lyon in 120 minutes and were matched with Atletico Bilbao in the semi-finals. Atletico Bilbao is a team that comes after Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid in the league and is a very difficult team compared to Manchester United. United, who are in 14th place in the Premier League, are experiencing inconsistency in their home performances. Considering their inability to maintain their 2-0 lead in the Lyon match and their weaknesses in defense, it is very difficult for them to get past Atletico Bilbao. Athletic, who are already in the Champions League pot in La Liga, will be comfortable here and will rest their good players and come out on the field fresh.
