Has had 12 efforts at goals in his last five games for United and this penalty and free-kick taker can add more here.Pedro Porro 1+ shot on target: Two goals and two assists from last six games, Porro finds himself consistently in an inverted role and high up the pitch. Has taken on a role as creative player at times too with lack of James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski.Over 13.5 corners: Corners aplenty between these two with 15 in their last Premier League meeting and 11 in cup clash prior to that. Wingers and wing backs generate these further and that’s how these two sides like to attack.Rodrigo Bentancur to be carded: One of his main tasks in that midfield will be to stop Fernandes. Has been booked in two of his last five starts too showing that side of his game remains.Back our 66/1 Bet BuilderBetfred: Bet £10 on a Bet Builder and Get £10 free bet to use on football**Remember to gamble responsiblyA responsible gambler is someone who:Establishes time and monetary limits before playingOnly gambles with money they can afford to loseNever chase their lossesDoesn’t gamble if they’re upset, angry or depressedGamcare – gamcare.org.ukGambleAware – GambleAware.orgRead our guide on responsible gambling practices.For help with a gambling problem, call the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 or go to gamstop.co.uk to be excluded from all UK-regulated gambling websites.*New customers only.

      Tottenham vs Man Utd: Europa League final predictions, free bets, tips and latest odds

      by

      IT all comes down to this for Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United when the pair meet in Wednesday’s huge Europa League final.The Premier League’s 17th and 16th placed sides have suffered a dismal domestic campaign but for one, their season will be saved by continental glory – and a spot in next season’s Champions League.SunSport have enlisted the help of their betting experts to preview the European showdown and select the best bets, tips and exclusive sign-up bonuses from our leading betting partners.New sign-up offersSunSport exclusivesTottenham Hotspur vs Manchester United previewA pretty disastrous season will all be forgiven for ONE of these sides in Wednesday’s do-or-die final.Plenty has been made about Tottenham and Manchester United’s dire campaigns but it’s still ridiculous to fathom them heading into the final Premier League weekend in 17th and 16th, respectively.But they’d given up on the league long before now and focused on this competition and the riches it brings.For United, it’d be the latest trophy secured despite a string of below-par seasons and for Spurs it ends a long wait for a big trophy.For both, it completely transforms their summer plans by banking a £100m Champions League bonus for earning their spot in amongst Europe’s elite next season.First scorer and correct score predictionsCorrect score: 2-2 at 12/1 with Betfred – HEREFirst scorer: Son Heung-min 17/2 with talkSPORT BET – HEREUnited are actually the only side to remain unbeaten in Europe this season having won nine and drawn five of their 14 ties on the continent.A far cry from the 18 league defeats from 37 played. Though even that is less than the 21 suffered by Spurs.Both sides were beaten on Friday night by Champions League chasing sides, though United did field a strong XI while Spurs opted to rest most of their key men.Spurs do go into the final without James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski, though have been boosted with Lucas Bergvall reportedly set to recover in time to feature, with Son Heung-min also getting minutes into his legs in the last two.Tottenham are unbeaten in the last SIX games against Manchester United in all competitive competitions – winning four of those, including the last three.How to claim talkSPORT BET offertalkSPORT BETVisit the talkSPORT website HERE*Create an account and Opt-In to this promotion by using the promocode EUROPA45 on the sign up or offers page.Make a deposit of £10 or morePlace your first bet of £10+ on any football market at odds 2.00+.You must do this within 7 days of registrationOnce that’s settled – win or lose – your account will be credited with £45 in free bets to use on football!On settlement you’ll receive 3 x £10 free bets, with a further 3 x £5 credited 24 hours latertalkSPORT BET: Get £45 in free bets – CLAIM HERE*Tottenham vs Man Utd latest oddsTo lift the trophySpurs – 10/11Man Utd – 4/5Odds are correct at the time of publication and are subject to change.How to claim..William Hill £60 welcome bonusVisit the William Hill website HERE*Register an account using the Promo Code: T60Once your account is registered, click ‘opt in’ on the ‘Vegas Promotion’ pageDeposit a minimum of £10 in your main account to receive a £20 Vegas Bonus for use on Selected GamesThen place a bet with a minimum stake of £10 at odds of 1/2 or greater on any football marketOnce that’s settled, your account will be credited with £40 in free betsWilliam Hill: Claim £60 welcome bonus – click here*Tottenham vs Man Utd betting predictions and tipsYellow warningNoussair Mazraoui went 15 starts without a booking in the Man Utd defence.But it’s now two yellows in his last three games as a long season and continued presence potentially begins to take its toll.Spurs’ wing backs and wingers are clearly their best avenue of attack and that puts further pressure on the United back line.Mazraoui was also booked in cup game between the teams at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium earlier in season.Noussair Mazraoui to be carded at 23/10 with William Hill – CLAIM HEREPorring it onSpeaking of Spurs full backs, Pedro Porro has stepped up in an attacking sense in recent weeks and will be a key outlet for Ange Postecoglou’s men.For a right back, he has two goals and two assists in his last six appearances before being rested on Friday night.Can add to either of those stats here against a United side who’ve conceded seven times in last four games.Pedro Porro to score or assist at 3/1 with William Hill – CLAIM HERE*William Hill. 18+.

      Ange Postecoglou does not know his Tottenham history if he thinks Europa League win will save him his job

      by

      IF ANGE POTSECOGLOU believes winning the Europa League could allow him to keep his Spurs job – he doesn’t know his Tottenham history.It was in 1984 that Keith Burkinshaw won his third trophy as Tottenham chief, with Tony Parks’ shoot-out heroics seeing off Anderlecht to win the Uefa Cup.Ange Postecoglou does not know his history if he thinks the Europa League will save his jobCredit: GettyKeith Burkinshaw won the trophy back in 1984 but was still given the bootCredit: GettyPostecoglou’s modern-day Spurs are out to win the same trophy in Bilbao on Wednesday.But like Yorkshireman Burkinshaw, Aussie Ange seems set for the exit door no matter what happens.Although the current Spurs hierarchy have kept their counsel about Postecoglou, back 41 years ago, Burkinshaw’s imminent departure was known for weeks – much to the frustration of his squad.Burkinshaw’s relationship with chairman Irving Scholar, always strained, had broken, irretrievably.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLThe manager believed it was his club, to manage as he saw fit.Scholar believed otherwise.The final, decisive breach came in March on the afternoon of the quarter-final second leg tie at Austria Vienna.Burkinshaw subsequently explained: “About 4pm in the afternoon he came to my bedroom with the assistant chairman.Most read in FootballBEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UK“They said: ‘You’re not going to be allowed to run the club as you’ve been doing. We are going to bring in the players. We’re going to decide how much they will get as wages.’“And it went on and on. I said: ‘Don’t you think this is the wrong time to be coming in here, at 4pm when we’ve got a quarter final at quarter to eight….?’How Europa League final will be decided – four key Man Utd vs Tottenham tactical battles“That started it all off. In the end I knew he’d been looking for another manager. I knew of it. And he’d made a proposal to one of them.”That “another manager” was, in fact, Alex Ferguson, with Scholar under the impression that the then-Aberdeen boss wanted to come down to London.Burkinshaw and Scholar agreed there was only one way to resolve their differences, with his players turning his imminent departure into a cause.Graham Roberts, who skippered the side for the second leg in the absence of the suspended Steve Perryman, said: “We wanted to win it so much, not just for ourselves but also for Keith, because we all knew it was his last game at the club.“But it was a Cup Final, in front of our own fans. You don’t get the chance to do that very often in a career, if at all. It meant so much.”Burkinshaw’s departure brought one of the most withering farewell comments in the history of the game.Collared by waiting reporters as he walked away for the last time, he was ready to vent.Read More on The SunHe explained: “I was really sick about it. And the way the club was run was being changed.“Clubs were becoming Public Limited Companies. So they were being run as businesses rather than football clubs. So I said to one of the reporters, ‘This used to be a football club here.’”Man Utd vs Spurs – Europa League final: Kick-off time, TV channel and live stream info for Bilbao clash More
