Bruno Fernandes (right - Manchester United) closely marks Tottenham midfielder
Tottenham had no trouble in their semi-final double against Bodo Glim, but they will face a big problem in the championship match against Manchester United in Bilbao in the early morning of May 22 (2am).
Both Tottenham and Manchester United are in poor form domestically. Tottenham have lost eight of their 10 Premier League games and are currently 17th in the table with just 38 points, while Manchester United are one place above them by just one point after losing six of their eight games without a win.
European press has poked fun at the Europa League by noting that the Premier League duo are breaking European records as one of the two teams will become the lowest-ranked champions in their national championship.
Manager Ange Postecoglou will field a full-strength squad against Manchester United after resting almost his entire starting XI for the 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa, with the likes of Lucas Bergvall, Radu Dragusin, Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison and Timo Werner all sidelined through injury.
Manchester United have proven their worth in back-to-back wins over Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League semi-finals, but expect a tight encounter at San Mames. With both sides likely to take a cautious approach in the decider, it's unlikely to be a high-scoring affair.
Lisandro Martinez and Matthijs de Ligt are both absent through injury, but Diogo Dalot, Leny Yoro and Joshua Zirkzee have returned to training to boost Manchester United's morale ahead of their trip to Bilbao.
Prediction: Tottenham - Manchester United 1-1

The odds of the match from the beginning were Manchester United with a handicap of half, but Tottenham (winning only 77). This odds were actually only even and Manchester United (winning 9, losing all) but the bookmakers skewed the odds to encourage players to bet on the underdog.
By yesterday afternoon, Tottenham had moved to 8 and this morning it was 82, as if the market was falling slightly on the underdog. In fact, the amount of money bet on this match was huge, but the number bet on Manchester United was only slightly higher (53% compared to 47%).
Anyway, with the caution of the final, the understanding between the two sides, the possibility of there being very few goals in 90 minutes. Choosing the underdog is more fun.
The lowest priced score is 1-1 with a 1 to 6 bet, while 2-2 is priced at 12, and 0-0 is priced at 1 to 10.

On the contrary, people rate Tottenham lower when 0-1 is priced at only 9, 1-2 is priced at 11, and 0-2 is priced at 13.
