In an upcoming match in Bilbao, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United will clash, both sides having struggled in the Premier League this season, sitting near the bottom of the table. Despite their poor domestic form, both teams continue to reach for European success. Spurs recently secured their place in the finals with a strong performance against Bodo/Glimt, while United secured a dramatic win over Lyon. Both teams hope to turn their disappointing league campaigns into success by winning a trophy and qualifying for next season's Champions League.
For Spurs, it would be a first trophy of any sort since the 2008 League Cup under Juande Ramos and their first in Europe for 41 years.
United emphatically denied Athletic Club a fairytale home final appearance in Bilbao after stunning Lyon in an all-time classic tie in the last eight.
Both Spurs and United have endured truly torrid Premier League campaigns, suffering their 21st and 18th defeats of the season respectively.
They last lifted European silverware with the 2016/17 Europa League under Jose Mourinho, beating Ajax in the final in Stockholm.
