With domestic leagues across Europe drawing to a close, the Europa League final will be played on May 21. The final features two English clubs - Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur. San Mames, home to semifinalists Athletic Bilbao, is the venue for the title decider.
With Spurs and United suffering greatly in the English Premier League, only triumph in the final can salvage either team's season. United and Spurs are 16th and 17th, respectively, in the league standings, and a Europa League triumph would mean automatic qualification to the Champions League next season.

Ahead of the final, Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou has admitted that his future hangs in the balance regardless of whether he steers his side to the trophy or not. As for United, a worst-ever league run can only be salvaged somewhat with a win in the final. Moreover, the financial repercussions of not securing European football will be manifold, increasing the stakes at hand for both clubs.
Spurs' route to the final saw them beat AZ Alkmaar, Eintracht Frankfurt and then Bodø/Glimt in the semi-final. United, on the other hand, had to go through Real Sociedad, Olympique Lyonnais and Athletic Bilbao, scoring a whopping 19 goals in just the knockout phase.
A win for Spurs would see them claim silverware for the first time since the 2008 League Cup. As for Europe, trophies haven't come around since the 1984 UEFA Cup.
United have enjoyed more success in that regard, and are one of the most successful teams in world football. The FA Cup in 2024 remains their most recent trophy, but 20 league titles, three Champions Leagues and several other domestic crowns find place in United's trophy cabinet. The Red Devils have won the Europa League once - in the 2016/17 season.
