Tottenham and Manchester United will face each other in the 2025 UEFA Europa League final today. Both teams are dealing with poor form, and they aim to reshape their seasons. Find out here the predicted lineups.
Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United are set to meet in the 2024/25 UEFA Europa League final at San Mames Barria Stadium in a clash that carries significant weight for both sides. After turbulent domestic campaigns, each club sees this game as a final opportunity to salvage its season as the winner will also earn a place in next year’s UEFA Champions League.
Under the guidance of Ange Postecoglou, Tottenham initially showed promise earning a fifth Premier League spot in his debut season with the team. Nevertheless, they have struggled to maintain consistency and a clear identity. While their Premier League form faltered, Spurs have delivered composed and disciplined performances in the Europa League.
Manchester United, for their part, have embraced the Europa League challenge with determination. Navigating past high-caliber opponents such as Rangers, Olympique Lyon, and Athletic Club, they have demonstrated both tactical discipline and individual brilliance. Also, they rely on experienced leaders like Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes, who can make the difference when it matters most.
Although many believe Manchester United enter the final game with more depth and firepower, Tottenham’s resilience and sharpness in this UEFA Europa League should not be underestimated. With both clubs fighting to redefine their seasons and secure a return to Europe’s top stage, the final game in Bilbao promises a compelling and fiercely contested showdown.
Tottenham Hotspur expected lineup vs Manchester United
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou usually avoids rotating his squad. As a result, his core group of players remains consistent. This lineup will likely stay the same for the final against Manchester United.
Meanwhile, team captain Heung-Min Son confirmed he has recovered from his recent injury. However, he admitted he does not expect to play many minutes in the final game. Therefore, he may start on the bench, though his presence in the match remains possible depending on the game’s development.
Considering the latter, Tottenham could start the game as follows: Guglielmo Vicario; Pedro Porro, Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, Destiny Udogie; Rodrigo Bentancur, Yves Bissouma, Pape Sarr; Brennan Johnson, Dominic Solanke, Richarlison.
Manchester United expected lineup vs Tottenham
Given the team’s impressive performance against Athletic Club in the semifinals, coach Ruben Amorim may stick with a slightly adjusted lineup. The squad remains strong, as only two players are currently out due to injury: Matthijs de Ligt and Lisandro Martinez.
In addition, several young players have stepped up in key moments. Leny Yoro has impressed in defense, Amad Diallo continues to grow in confidence, and Patrick Dorgu has quickly established himself as the starting left-back, despite being only 20 years old and having joined the team just a few months ago.
With this in mind, Manchester United could start the UEFA Europa League final as follows: Andre Onana; Victor Lindelof, Harry Maguire, Leny Yoro; Noussair Mazraoui, Manuel Ugarte, Casemiro, Patrick Dorgu; Alejandro Garnacho, Bruno Fernandes; Rasmus Hojlund.
