JOSE MOURINHO really is the Special One when it comes to finals.

The Man United boss has won all three of his European jaunts with Porto and Inter Milan - and has a mightily impressive record in domestic cups as well.

The Dutch side and United are the top two for attempts at goal in the competition this year - so get on Betfair's 23/20 for both teams to score instead.

United are missing top scoring striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic - but Henrikh Mkhitaryan has been doing the business all season on the continent and we'll be backing the Armenian to open the scoring at 11/2 with Sun Bets.

Mourinho has never lost a final over 90 minutes - so the Dutch side face an uphill task.

But, if you fancy a long-shot, you could do worse than take 7/1 with Betway for Ajax's young side to win either in extra-time or penalties.

We'll be backing United to win 2-1 in Stockholm though with Paddy Power's 17/2.
