We have to go back to the 1971-72 season to find the last time two English clubs made it to the final of the Europa League, but after some dramatic games in this season’s competition that’s exactly what we’ve got this year as Chelsea and Arsenal do battle.
The final is being played in the Olympic Stadium in Baku, Azerbaijan on Wednesday 29th May and with a Champions League place up for grabs for the winners there is certainly a lot at stake.
