UEFA Europa League Final opponents confirmed

It will be an all Premier League clash in this year's UEFA Europa League Final with Manchester United confirmed as our opponents.

Having booked our place in the final on Thursday night with a 2-0 victory over Bodø/Glimt in Norway to win our semi-final tie 5-1 on aggregate, Manchester United secured their spot in the showpiece by defeating their opponents, Athletic Club, 7-1 on aggregate.

United had ran out 3-0 winners at San Mames Stadium - the host venue for this year's final - last week as they claimed victory on Athletic's home soil before a 4-1 win at Old Trafford tonight confirmed their progression.

The Final will be played out on Wednesday 21 May in Bilbao with kick-off at 8pm (UK).

Further details about the Final, including ticketing, will follow in due course.

We have faced United three times already this season and have come out on top on each occasion. We defeated the Reds 3-0 back in September in a Premier League trip to Old Trafford before earning back-to-back home wins over the Red Devils with a 4-3 win in the League Cup quarter-finals in December before we claimed a 1-0 league win in February.

We have once before played United in Europe. Taking them on in a two-legged second round tie in the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1963 as holders, we won 2-0 at home but lost 4-1 in the away leg.
