Who will win the Europa League 2013 in Amsterdam??
Chelsea or Benifica
Tonight is the night when the Chelsea can create history by wining the two different European Competitions in successive years.
Last year they won the Champions League beating favorites Bayern Munich but became the first holders to exit the Champions League before Christmas. This time they need to beat Portugals top club to win the Europa League.
Chelsea are the favorites for this clash and to win the title of the 2nd tier Champions of Europe
Chelsea will miss a key player in Hazard as he will not make a appearance cause of a hamstring injury sustained in the last game in the premier league where they clinch their place in next years Champions League
They will also miss John Terry who was stretched off in the same game as Hazard but Hazard will be a bigger blow as he is the better player as he has proven this season for Chelsea.
They will also miss Demba Ba as he played for Newcastle this season in the competition already.
The goal scoring pressure will be on Torres and Frank Lampard who is Chelsea's leading goal scorer with 203 goals to his name.
David Luiz looks like will be playing in the midfield as he often has in this competition. We hope to see his stunning goals as we have seen some blinders in the previous games in this competition.
He could well win the tie for the English side but Juan Mata will be the key player in the Chelsea side. His passing,movement and goal scoring has helped Chelsea's in its long season.
Benifica have been a force to recon in Portugal this season. They and Porto have been battling it out for the Portuguese title this season.
Until the last match Benifica were unbeaten in their League before Porto won the Classico when they scored at the death. The Portuguese League title now looks to be in Porto's favor.
So Benifica will go all out to win against Chelsea. Benfica will be looking to avoid their seventh straight defeat in a European final, the last being versus Braga 2 seasons ago.
David Luiz and Ramirez two former Benifica players will want to win against their former team and get two successive European titles to their name.
Rafael Benitez will also like to add another trophy to his CV so that he can get a good job after his interim job at Chelsea is over at the end of this season.
So who do you think will win tonight?
Chelsea or Benifica
