Manchester United last met Premier League opponents in Europe in the 2015/16 Europa League round of 16, losing 1-3 on aggregate to Liverpool (0-2 a, 1-1 h). This is United's second all-English European final. They beat Chelsea 6-5 on penalties in the 2007/08 Champions League following a 1-1 draw at Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium.

Tottenham Hotspur sit 16th in the Premier League, but Ange Postecoglou's side will qualify for next season's Champions League if they can beat Man United in the Europa League final.

Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur have had a forgettable season in the Premier League but can still salvage some pride in the UEFA Europa League. Though consigned to the ignominy of a bottom-half finish, both teams may have a big say in the top-five race despite being a long way off the pace.
