Both teams are no longer focused on the Premier League because they have ensured that they are not relegated so what is being done now is preparing for the Europa League final. Both coaches are very aware that achieving the title will save them from the slump because at least the fans can be satisfied with achieving one title. But this challenge is not easy because both teams come from the same League so overall for both coaches understand each other's weaknesses. I favor Manchester United as a candidate for the title but Tottenham also has a big chance because so far this season Manchester United has not been able to beat Tottenham in the Premier League.
The game at San Mamés Stadium in Bilbao, Spain, will determine the destiny of Manchester United and Tottenham. Both teams are depending solely on this competition for next season's activities. These two English sides experienced a huge decline in performance and reputation and this cup will give them a lifeline to rebuild the club. They would be able to attract world class players if the win the competition since these players will prefer clubs that will be playing in the UCL. Both teams have been inconsistent this season. Hence, it will be difficult to predict who the winner will be. But I agree that Tottenham are favourites to win the Cup since they have performed better each time they met this season.
Initially I was quite confident that Manchester United would win the UEFA Europa League trophy for this season. However, when they found out that their opponent in the final was Tottenham Hotspur, then doubts about Man United being able to win the trophy arose, because apart from Man United having a bad record lately when facing Spurs, but what was said by Spurs coach "Ange Postegcoglou" who said that "usually I get the trophy in the second season", a statement that at least this slightly shook the team's confidence and also the fans for Man United to be able to win over Spurs and lift the UEL trophy.
The match between the two teams will be the match between the favorites of the Europa League. Since no team has reached this level in the Champions League, the two teams with the best squad and the highest value squad in the Europa League are facing each other. I think most people expected this result. With the advantage of the fixtures, both teams reached the final without experiencing an early elimination. Frankly, I thought the Spanish could eliminate Manchester, but Manchester eliminated them with two great matches and reached the final. Tottenham played the qualifiers with weaker opponents and came to the final a little more comfortably. When I consider the games played, I see Manchester United as the favorite.
