This is the big one, the domestic European season comes to a climax with what has all the hallmarks of a classic encounter between two of the best attacking sides on the continent.
Real Madrid v Liverpool is in many ways a dream final pairing – the dominant European force of recent times led by one of the two best players of a generation are going for an incredible third straight Champions League title and fourth in five years.
In opposition, a young, hungry Liverpool side moulded in the style of their German leader – all action, no backwards steps and all-out attack. In their corner they have an attacking trio that is the envy of Europe – in short, anything could happen in Kiev on Saturday night.
Real Madrid rightly go into the game as warm order 4/6 favourites to lift the trophy but the sheer force of Liverpool’s attacking play means that, on their night, they can beat anyone – they have done it to Manchester City three teams this season.
The Reds have been breath-taking at times this season, especially in the Champions League where they’ve scored 40 goals (including six in the qualifying round) compared to Real Madrid’s 30 – who are the next best.
