Ajax vs Man Utd Preview
Jose Mourinho will be under a lot of pressure to add the Europa League trophy to Man Utd’s cabinet, as the only silverware they’ve secured this season is the League Cup.
Man Utd have had a poor season by their standards having finished 6th which means they missed out on a top four finish in the Premier League for the second year running.
Ajax on the other hand finished 2nd in the Eredivisie, but they haven’t had success in a European competition since 1995 and will be determined to win.
The 2017 Europa League Final is being played at the Friends Arena in Stockholm at 19:45 on Wednesday and will be shown live on BT Sport 2 as well as streamed for free on YouTube.
Ajax's Best Odds: 7/2
If you’re betting that Ajax will the Europa League Final, Ladbrokes.com offer best odds at 7/2.
Peter Bosz's team have had a great season, and will definitely be a challenging team for Man Utd to secure victory over to win the Europa League Final.
The Eredivisie runners-up have a young and technically impressive squad, who constantly play at breakneck speed and put a lot of additional pressure on their competitors.
Ajax could easily win the Europa League if they can pull it together on the day.
They may not have any major injury worries ahead of the game, but the main concern for Bosz is the weakness in Ajax's defence, and how Man Utd take advantage of it.
Man Utd's Best Odds: 19/20
If you’re betting on Mourinho guiding Man Utd to victory, SkyBet offer the best odds at 19/20.
Having played fairly poorly over the last few weeks of the season, Jose Mourinho is under serious pressure to deliver the Europa League trophy to Man Utd's fans.
Having only finished 6th in the Premier League, a Europa Cup victory would not only give them another trophy, but would also secure the Champions League qualification they crave.
Unfortunately Mourinho has quite a few injury worries to contend with ahead of Wednesday nights clash against Ajax in Stockholm.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Marcos Rojo, Luke Shaw and Ashley Young are all missing with injuries, while Eric Bailly is out following his recent red card.
Even with major injuries and recent poor form, online bookmakers still offer Man Utd up as the favourites to win the 2017 Europa League Final.
Best Odds On A Draw: 5/2
These teams have met 4 times before with none ending in a draw. Having said that, Man Utd drew more matches this season than any other team.
Plus, 4 of Man Utd's last 6 Europa League matches have resulted in a draw in 90 minutes, so a draw could be a very realistic outcome based on these stats.
If you're betting on neither team doing enough to win, Ladbrokes.com offer the best odds on a draw at 5/2.
