Europe’s secondary major club competition, behind the Champions League, will see a fiercely contested game.
The winner will get a spot in next season’s Champions League, which both sides will be desperate to attain.
Manchester United and Tottenham have had very poor seasons, currently sitting in 16th and 17th place in the Premier League, respectively.
The Red Devils will be seeking to win their second Europa League, after triumphing in 2017.
Meanwhile, Spurs will be hoping to secure their first major trophy since the 2008 League Cup win against Chelsea.
Europa League matches have only been available to watch through TNT Sports up until this stage of the competition, but viewers are able to see the final for free.

Can you watch the Europa League final on YouTube?
Up until the 2023/24 season, the major European finals were streamed live on the BT Sport YouTube channel.
However, that is not the case anymore due to BT Sport merging with Eurosport under the TNT Sports brand.
All of their live coverage comes under the umbrella of discovery+ online, so they have made the choice to keep coverage to their own service.
