-snip-The bookies are underestimating Spurs and Man Utd Grin

yes I know they are poor in this competition and probably won't be going at full steam considering they have to prepare for the UEFA league final but still they are teams with quality squads, so is this an easy bet for the hosts?

Tottenham may be playing badly but I doubt Chelsea will be able to beat Manchester United. Chelsea vs Manchester United match is unpredictable. Although Chelsea is better this season but they always struggle when facing United. Their last match ended in a draw. I predict this match will also end in a draw. On the other hand both teams will play in the Europa League final and they may not play seriously in this match. Tottenham and United may finish this season at the bottom of the league besides the relegation zone. But at least they can win the European competition. I think this is really an anomaly for both teams because it seems like this is the first season when two teams are at the bottom of the league table but playing in the Europa League final.

Tottenham and Manchester United main focus remains the Europa League final, but the matches they will play this weekend in the Premier League will also be very important, because they will help improve their position in the standings before the season ends. On paper Aston Villa and Chelsea are clearly more favored, besides their reputation this season is much better, both teams will also act as hosts. Aston Villa and Chelsea are competing to secure a place in the Champions League zone, I think Tottenham and Manchester United will still try to cause disruption.
