Can I get tickets for the Europa League final NOW?
All tickets and resale tickets for the Europa League final have sold out.
But a total of 23,000 tickets will go on sale to fans of both teams when the finalists are known.
According to the original pricing, tickets will be available for £130, £86, £60 and £39.
Will the winner of the Europa League qualify for the Champions League?
The winner of the Europa League will not just qualify for the Champions League but also enter the group stage automatically.
That is of particular importance for Arsenal, who currently sit 6th in the Premier League with very little chance of qualifying via the domestic route.
Their opponents, and tournament favourites, Atletico Madrid are currently 2nd in La Liga and will qualify for the Champions League regardless of their Europa League performance, so Arsenal will be hoping they take their foot off the peddle.
