Footie Cup Finals

There are 3 main cup finals today.

Man Utd v Crystal Palace
I guess I'll be in the majority of wanting Crystal Palace to win. Unless your a Man Utd fan, probably nearly everybody will want the underdog to win. It would be great to see Palace win a major trophy for the first time.
Rangers v Hibs
Much like the game above, the majority of people will be routing for Hibs, they're the underdogs and haven't won the Scottish Cup for 102 years, which for such a major club is very sad.
Real Madrid v Athletico Madrid
Probably the first time that 2 teams from the same city have appeared in a major European final. Again I'll be routing for the underdogs, who will be attempting to lift the European Cup for the first time.
So Palace, Hibs & Atletico Madrid winners would be great. So knowing my reputation at predictions, they'll be a raft of bets on the other 3. :lol:

Would you not call the Champions League final a major European final?

Naturally I would.

Great to see the underdog win the Scottish Cup after a wait of 114 years.

Aren't the French (Marseille v PSG), Italian (AC v Juve) and German (Bayern v Dortmund) all on today as well?

Yes I now realise that. Ok Spyman, sorry didn't realise that they had played against each other 2 years ago.
