Its the Europa League final tonight between Chelsea and Benfica in Amsterdam and it's certainly a game to look forward to. Benfica are coming off a heartbreaking loss to Porto last weekend in a game that was almost certainly a title decider.

However, that was Benfica's first defeat in the league all season so this is certainly a team to be respected. They have quality throughout the side namely former Real Madrid centre half Ezequiel Garay and former Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic, both of whom have been linked with Manchester United.

Chelsea are without Eden Hazard who will be a significant loss with Victor Moses likely to deputise for the Belgian.

Chelsea are priced at 6/4 for the win with Benfica 15/8 and the draw 11/5.
