Europa league final preview

The first part of the all English European finals will be played today at the Olympic Stadium, Baku between Chelsea and Arsenal. All London European final. I guess this is the first of its kind in years and it will be a match that will be remembered in years to come.

What to expect: it's gonna be a tough match. Chelsea will want to win the trophy to help bail them out from a distrastrous campaign having won nothing during the season.

Arsenal on the other hand need to win this match and they need the win so as to qualify for the champions league. Failure to lift the trophy will automatically mean that Arsenal will once again play in the europa competition for another season and this will make it the third year that they have missed the UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE.

Star player to watch out for:

Hazard: This might probably be the last match for hazard in a Chelsea shirt and he will love to sign out with a trophy to mark the end of his rain at Chelsea, he has obviously been Chelsea best players for years now and probably premiership best player for years. This season was a great season for him also, scoring a lot of goals and winning the trophy for highest asisst made in a season. He will do all his best to win the trophy for Chelsea this evening. Giroud might be Chelsea hugest goal in this tournament but hazard will be the player everyone will be looking up to for inspiration and to get the goals today..

Aubeymeyang: he has been a great player even before being brought to arsenal. At arsenal he as gone from strength to strength and he showed the whole of premiership that he is not afraid or shy in the front of goal. After winning the goal boot along side mane and Salah.. He will want to go a step further and seal It off with a trophy. That will make his campaign much more sweeter and he will be the player his team mate will look up to to get the goals and having 8 goals in this competition, he will be eyeing the golden boot with Chelsea Giroud leading with 10 goals along side LucaP
