Overall I agree that Manchester United are more favored than Tottenham. I also predict that United will be the champion of UEL this season. One thing that makes me sure is that they surprisingly managed to beat Athletic Bilbao. I feel that Bilbao is the first favorite in UEL. They are ranked fourth in La Liga and only lower in ranking than teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. This shows how impressive Bilbao's performance is in the league. Yes, anything can happen in football. But assuming both teams are from the same league and they have tactics that are not much different, I believe that Manchester United's chances of becoming champions are much greater
The Athletic v United clash was decided by an early red card in the first leg. It could have gone differently, but it was decided after that. Athletic played very well in the return game, but unfortunately their peculiarity is that when there is no practical sense in playing, they fall apart, so the second game also ended in a rout. But still, these results do not reflect the real balance of power in this pair.
