Champions League final: Manchester United in 1999 are the WORST performing team to win competition, according to statistics
Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur face off in the Champions League Final on Saturday, but both will be more worthy winners than Manchester United in 1999.The Premier League rivals will square off in the Wanda Metropolitano in Madrid, a game you can hear live on talkSPORT from 8pm.getty5

One of either Liverpool or Tottenham will lift the famous trophy in Madrid this weekend

For Liverpool, there is a chance to claim a sixth European crown and erase the nightmare of last season’s final defeat to Real Madrid in Kiev.The situation is slightly more simple for Spurs – they have not reached the Champions League final in their illustrious history and are hoping to etch their name onto the famous trophy for the first time.But whoever wins, both will be more worthy winners than Manchester United two decades ago.According to statistics provided by Your Promotional Code, Sir Alex Ferguson’s treble-winning side are statistically the worst side to win the Champions League.getty5

Teddy Sheringham heads the ball on for Solskjaer to prod home in 1999

United are the only side since the competition was re-branded in 1993 to win fewer than half their games en route to lifting the trophy.The Red Devils managed to record just five victories including the final out of their 11 main round European fixtures, giving them a win-rate of just 45%.Goals from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Teddy Sheringham secured a memorable comeback win against Bayern Munich in Camp Nou having already wrapped up the Premier League and FA Cup.As you can see from the graphic below, this puts the Premier League side at the top of a very unique and unwanted list of ‘poor-performing’ Champions League winners.5

Manchester United have the lowest win rate of any Champions League winners in history

The 1999 champions also had the poorest defensive record of any eventual winner, conceding an average of 1.45 goals per game.Other leaky Champions League winning defences include the Real Madrids teams of 2016/17 (1.38 goals conceded per game) and 1999/00 (1.35 goals per game).getty5

Liverpool’s 2005 success in Istanbul came after winning 54% of their games

However, while certain Real sides were weak at the back, Los Blancos do boast the most successful team in a single campaign the 2013/14 winners have the joint-highest win-rate (85%), the best goals per game ratio (3.15 goals) and the best-accumulated goal difference across a campaign (+31).Barcelona (2014/15) and Borussia Dortmund (1996/97) are the only other teams to boast a win-rate of over 80%, with Real featuring twice among the top five most dominant sides, as you can see below.5

Real Madrid’s team from 2014 dominated in Europe

Another side with statistically poor form was the 1995/96 Juventus winners.The Serie A side lost the greatest proportion of their matches during their European triumph (27%), while AC Milan (2002/03) and Real Madrid (1999/00) are the only champions to lose more than three times in a season but this was during the extended format of the competition, which included two group stages and 17 games in total. A spokesperson forYour promotional codesaid: Winning the Champions League is a monumental task, but it is fascinating to discover which of the 26 winners really was the best. Real Madrid have been dominant in recent years but their record during the 2013/14 season reveals exactly when they were at the peak of their powers.Nobody can take away the success of the 1998/99 Manchester United team, although their statistical record in Europe that year does actually compare poorly to other champions, including the Red Devils own success in 2008.
