Manchester United will be targeting Europa League glory when they face Tottenham Hotspur in the final at the San Mames Stadium in Bilbao tonight.
United have made it all the way to their third Europa League final in nine seasons boasting an impressive unbeaten run in the competition, winning nine and drawing five of their first 14 games, meaning they will be determined to jump the final hurdle and return to Manchester with silverware.
Just like Spurs, United have endured a wretched Premier League campaign, meaning the opportunity to win the Europa League and secure Champions League qualification for next term would salvage something from their campaign.
Regarding the team news, United head coach Ruben Amorim has taken a 26-man squad to Bilbao with him, which includes Diogo Dalot, Leny Yoro and Joshua Zirkzee, all of whom have recovered from injury issues to be involved.
Below, our writers have had their say on how they would like to see United line up in the final:
Samuel Luckhurst:
United have some genuine dilemmas. Yoro's availability is significant and Noussair Mazraoui merits a start. It should be a point of principle not to start Luke Shaw when he has lined up four times within three weeks on the eve of a final.
Ideally, United would not play Rasmus Hojlund. We know he will start but he shouldn't. United won a trophy last season because Hojlund was taken out of the team for the FA Cup final and Bruno Fernandes would be an upgrade.
You can play Fernandes anywhere and he will have an impact. United need to balance pragmatism with proactivism and not have the starting XI overloaded with defensive players.
Tyrone Marshall:
The big unknown here is the fitness of the three players who have returned to training this week. Well, two of them really, Zirkzee surely won't be fit to start.
Yoro seems the most likely to get the nod from the beginning. As a centre-back his workload is smaller and he has only really missed a week of training. That means Lindelof can drop to the bench and Yoro can line up alongside Shaw and Maguire.
Dalot is a valuable option off the bench but after a month out with a hamstring injury, I wouldn't risk starting him. He can influence the game as a sub, so Mazraoui plays on the right and Dorgu on the left. Playing Mazraoui is balanced by Fernandes dropping into a deeper midfield role alongside Casemiro, with Ugarte the unfortunate fall guy.
Moving Fernandes back will allow Amad and Mount to fill those No. 10 roles, with Garnacho primed for a role off the bench. Hojlund has to start as the striker.
Steven Railston:
The biggest game of United's season is finally here - the talking has ended and it is time for the players to deliver on the pitch. Amorim named a 26-man travelling squad for the game, but three players are guaranteed to miss out, and perhaps that's evidence of him playing mind games with Ange Postecoglou.
I'd start with Mazraoui, Maguire and Yoro in the back three, who should be able to limit Tottenham's threat. It also makes sense to start Dalot and Dorgu at wing-back.
Amad must start and I prefer him in the No.10 position for now, which means Dalot gets the nod at right wing-back in my team and Fernandes is dropped back into midfield alongside Casemiro.
Tottenham will have prepared to face an out-of-form Hojlund in the Europa League final, so starting Zirkzee would provide some unpredictability and give United a slight advantage.
George Smith:
Amorim has some tough calls to make in just about every position. Yoro's availability means he must start somewhere in the back-three, but there will be some debate about exactly where.
I would start him on the left, as that was where he was flourishing prior to his recent injury. Maguire should start in the middle and Mazraoui is a logical candidate to start on the right amid Dalot's return.
Dalot, if his fitness allows, should start at right wing-back and Dorgu is an obvious pick on the opposite flank. Casemiro and Ugarte have developed a good midfield bond in the Europa League and ought to start together in the engine room.
Amad has to start after the season he has had, meaning he should operate in the right-sided No.10 role. Hojlund has struggled for goals all season and United, despite not testing the water recently, would be better off allowing Fernandes to lead the attack as a false-nine.
As Samuel has already said, Fernandes has the ability to make something happen from just about anywhere on the pitch.
