Over the next two weeks, three Premier League teams will be given the opportunity to win European titles. Man United and Tottenham will compete in the Europa League finals next week, and seven days later, Chelsea can become the first club to win all three major tournaments when they win Real Betis in the UEFA Conference League.
All three clubs express their confidence in achieving European glory, but they would say it easier than they say. Many have already had their comments on who will win in the two finals, and the latest to do so is former Liverpool and British striker Stan Colliemore.
In an exclusive column on catch-offside, Collymore made predictions for the Europa League and the UEFA Conference League Finals, involving Man United, Tottenham and Chelsea.
“You can see both finals spend extra time. In the Europa League, there’s so much uncertainty surrounding how Tottenham and Mann United perform in Bilbao, so it was very easy to see it ending 2-2 or 3-3 after 90 minutes.
“Who wins can be a huge amount of coins, but if you stick your neck out, I think Tottenham will take that as they’ve made Man United better in the three previous meetings this season.
“The Chelsea Betis Final in the UEFA Conference League will be much closer than people think. The difference is a strange goal, but you can see Betis having players like Antony and Isco in the top form, but winning because of Enzo Maresca’s offensive talent.”
It will be interesting to see who will appear in Trump in the coming weeks. However, the fact that there are three Premier League teams in these finals shows the strength of England’s premier competition.
