Newcastle United legend, Alan Shearer, believes that Tottenham Hotspur will beat Manchester United in a penalty shootout during the upcoming Europa League final.
The Europa League final will take place in Bilbao, Spain, where both Premier League clubs are eager to secure a victory to qualify for next season’s UEFA Champions League.
During a discussion on The Rest is Football podcast, Shearer predicted a close match, suggesting that both teams are likely to end up with a 2-2 draw, leading to Tottenham ultimately claiming the trophy through penalties.
While acknowledging that both teams have struggled in the Premier League, Shearer pointed out that one of them is destined to earn a spot in the Champions League next year.
He projected a thrilling match, predicting scores of 2-2 or even 3-3 after extra time, with Tottenham emerging victorious in the shootout.
In preparation for the final, Manchester United have received a significant boost with updates on the fitness of three key players: Diogo Dalot, Joshua Zirkzee, and Leny Yoro.
Despite uncertainties leading up to the match, all three participated fully in Tuesday morning’s training session after missing the team’s recent 1-0 loss to Chelsea.
Their return adds depth to the squad as they gear up to face Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham on Wednesday night, May 21, at 8 pm.
