Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho insists Ajax have an advantage going into the Europa League final.

The United chief was thrilled to scrape past Celta Vigo 2-1 on aggregate in the semis after a dramatic 1-1 draw at Old Trafford finished up 10 a side.

But Mourinho insists United are at double disadvantage for the final in Stockholm on May 24.

He said: “It will be difficult. They finish the league this weekend.

“From this weekend they'll have 12 days to prepare, but we have three matches and not many players."
