For the first time in six years, the UEFA Europa League final will be contested between two clubs from the same country, with Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur set to contest an all-English clash at the San Mamés stadium in Bilbao on May 21.

For Manchester United or Tottenham, a miserable campaign will end in Europa League glory. Despite both teams languishing in the bottom half of the Premier League, the Champions League is now just one game away.

It is a 'get out of jail free' card for both teams. It allows whoever wins the Europa League to say "it was a terrible season but we escaped, we have a place in the Champions League and it gives us some money".
