Tottenham’s big day is finally here – the Europa League final.
Ange Postecoglou’s side is looking to bring home some silverware and end their 17-year trophy drought. A win would not only be a great achievement for the team but also a huge vindication for Postecoglou’s tactics.
Tottenham Hotspur’s recent form against Manchester United has been pretty solid, with three wins against the Red Devils this season. However, United’s European record is something to be reckoned with – they’ve been unbeaten in 14 games in the Europa League this season.
As for team news, Tottenham have some injury concerns ahead of the match. James Maddison who travelled with the squad, Dejan Kulusevski and Lucas Bergvall who is nursing an ankle injury won’t be featuring tonight. On a more positive note, Pape Matar Sarr is available after picking up a knock against Aston Villa on Sunday.
Postecoglou’s likely lineup will feature Vicario in goal, with Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, and Udogie in defense. Bentancur, Bissouma, and Sarr will likely form the midfield trio, with Johnson, Son, and Solanke leading the attack.
Postecoglou says that he won’t be making any major change to the lineup, keeping it simple like usual. The Australian Manager will be hoping that the team he fields tonight can bring glory to London team at the end of the match.
