Thiago and Diaz start for Reds

Liverpool and Real Madrid are braced for a mammoth Champions League final on Saturday night.

This season’s blockbuster finale will see a repeat of the 2018 final that ended in a 3-1 victory for Real Madrid, who in turn lifted their 13th Champions League title.

Undoubtedly looking for revenge on their European rivals, Jurgen Klopp’s Reds, who will come into Saturday’s final at the Stade de France in Paris as narrow favourites, will be looking to right the wrongs of four years ago.

Despite their domestic dominance that has already seen them lift two major trophies this season, Liverpool will know that Carlo Ancelotti’s Los Blancos are born to play on the biggest of stages.
