Europa Conference League Final: Collymore predicts winner of Man Utd vs Tottenham

Published

on

Stan Collymore, a former Liverpool star, has predicted the winner of the UEFA Europa League final between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United.

Manchester United will tackle Tottenham in the Europa League final at San Mamés, Bilbao on May 21.

The Red Devils had defeated Athletic Club in the semi-final, while Spurs knocked out Bodø/Glimt from the competition.

Tottenham had won the last three meetings against Man United this season.

However, Collymore believes Tottenham will beat United in the Europa League final.

“I can see both finals going to extra time. In the Europa League, I could very easily see it ending 2-2 or 3-3 after 90 minutes because there is so much uncertainty surrounding how Tottenham and Man United will perform in Bilbao,” Collymore told CaughtOffside.

“It could very much be a toss of a coin for who win – but if I stick my neck out, I think Tottenham will take it because they have got the better of Man United in the previous three meetings this season.”

The kick-off time for the match is 8 p.m.
