Tottenham vs Manchester United Prediction (21.05.2025)

Tottenham and Manchester United are the two teams that have made it to the final of the Europa League this season. In Bilbao, it will be determined which of the two will be able to save their season with a victory.

Is it time for the "Spurs" to break their curse?

For 17 years now, the London club has not won a single trophy. Putting an end to this black streak was one of the goals that manager Ange Postecoglou set for himself from the first day he took charge of the club. He is now just one game away from achieving this ambition, after which the disappointing performance in the league will be largely forgiven. However, we have yet to see if this will actually happen.

On the other hand, Manchester United can once again cover up a very poor season with a trophy. I don't think this will happen though. The "Red Devils" need a season outside of the tournaments to regroup and return to their true form, instead of deceiving themselves over and over again. In this match, it's hard to talk about anything other than its significance. Throughout the season, Tottenham has only had victories against this opponent, but the last direct duel was 3 months ago, which is quite a long time. I still think this will be the year of the "Lilywhites".

Bet on 1X and under 3.5 goals

The most suitable prediction seems to be that the Londoners will celebrate with the trophy.

After a shaky season in the Premier League, Tottenham have the opportunity to end the campaign with a European trophy. Their path to the final in the Europa League was far more impressive than their performance in England, and it was in this match that the team demonstrated consistency and character. In the direct clashes against Manchester United in the current campaign, the balance is eloquent - three wins out of three matches for the Spurs, which certainly boosts their confidence before the decisive match.

Although they did not shine in the league either, Manchester United have been flawless in the Europa League - 14 matches without a loss. This is a serious testament to the stability of the team, especially in the context of eliminations and international matches. However, the final is a different type of challenge - the tension is huge, the stakes are high, and indecision in such matches often leads to lower performance. In this context, United is expected to play patiently and defensively, with an emphasis on avoiding mistakes.

Considering the history between the two teams throughout the season and the nature of final clashes, I do not expect an open match. Tottenham have a slight psychological advantage, which should not be underestimated. Combined with United's form in the tournament, this suggests an evenly matched battle in which one situation will be decisive. Under 2.5 goals seems like a logical choice, and I also add a prediction that Tottenham will not lose in regular time.

Hardly anyone expected that the 16th and 17th in the Premier League would reach the final in the Europa League, and hardly anyone expected that it would be Tottenham and Manchester United. Both teams have long abandoned the tragic season in the championship and have focused on the trophy in this tournament.

The Tottenham coach facing dismissal could become the first Australian manager to win a European trophy. Tottenham has been unbeaten in their last six matches against United, and this season they have already beaten them three times - twice in the league and once in the cup.

Ruben Amorim currently enjoys trust, which may decrease in case of a potential failure in the final. He has the opportunity to become the third United coach to win a trophy in his first season in charge. While in charge of Sporting, the Portuguese team played strong matches in the Champions League in the fall. After taking over United, Amorim continued and the "Red Devils" are still the only undefeated team in European competitions this season. Recently, they left "San Mames" with success, where the current final will be played, but we will see if they will have reasons to celebrate here again.

Undoubtedly the most important match for both teams this season. This also makes me think that it will be difficult to determine a winner here, but if there is one, I am more inclined to believe it will be Manchester United.
