Real Madrid Vs Liverpool Preview: Team News, Predicted Lineups, Prediction And Odds

All roads lead to Kyiv tomorrow as 12-time UCL winners Real Madrid look to win their third consecutive Champions League title this season. Beating the French domestic champions, the Italian domestic champions and the German domestic champions in their knockout games, Real Madrid are firm favourites to lift yet another European title, but they will not find it easy against a high-flying Liverpool side.

Jurgen Klopp’s men, who only finished 4th in the domestic league table, beat FC Porto, Manchester City and AS Roma in the last three rounds of the competition, and stand as the top goal scorers this season, deservedly booking a place in the final.

Liverpool are back in the showpiece event for the first time in 11 years while Zinedine Zidane has won two UCL titles in his first two seasons at the club, before taking them to yet another final. On the other hand, Klopp, who takes Liverpool into their third major final as a manager, has lost each of his last five cup finals and will be desperate to turn things around.

The last encounter between the two sides ended in a 1-0 victory for the Spanish giants, but Liverpool beat Real the last time these two met in a European final. They have 17 European titles between them and are genuine giants of the footballing world, fighting for the biggest prize of them all.
