Over the years, the Europa League has been a showcase for spectacular talent that will once grace the biggest stages in the world. This year is no exception, as FC Porto has advanced to the final. Radamel Falcao, Hulk, and Varela, amongst others, are regarded as some of the hottest properties in Europe. All three of those players start tonight, and they will make up a very formidable front three.

Expect them to put defense first, but also to play with some ambiiton on the counter-attack. Here are the complete lineups.
