Van Tottenham fans are expected to considerably surpass the Manchester United supporters in Bilbao, Mail Sport understands.
Although both clubs were assigned 15,000 seats for the Europa League final on Wednesday, it is assumed that around 15,000 Spurs fans will travel to the Basque Country without tickets, compared to around 2,000 followers of United in a similar position.
While Spurs went to the Champions League final in 2019, it is thought that the novelty value behind more numbers of their supporters will travel to taste the atmosphere.
Before 2019, their last performance arrived at a European final in 1984. Meetings were held between the two clubs on Friday and Saturday to plan the match in the 53,000 capacity San Mames Stadium.
Officers in Bilbao traveled to Wembley, where their British counterparts have given information about supplying a ring of steel around the circumference of the ground.
After the moving disorder outside the National Stadium in the final of the European Championship 2021, when ticketless fans stormed the location prior to the collision of England with Italy, a series of new security measures was introduced.
Just like Wembley, Athletic's Home is located in a mainly built -up environment with bars and restaurants close to Tourniquets. However, there is a confidence that those without tickets cannot find a way inside for the seasonal clash.
Greater Manchester police officers met the police and the British football police unit in Bilbao for the game and have worked with the local strength, the Ertzaintza, with whom they have a strong relationship.
De Ertzintza has a reputation for a more light approach than forces in many other Spanish cities and their journey to London has been seen as a measure of their willingness to work together.
United and Spurs officials have often worked closely in the past and there is a great desire to ensure that fans do not experience the problems that have been suffered at the recent Champions League final in Istanbul and Paris.
Two separate fan zones are set up and no problems are expected with the locals. Those who live in Bilbao are passionate about football and are known for their warm hospitality.
