Liverpool vs Tottenham Predictions: Liverpool Line-up

The Champions League final will be an all-English affair for the first time in over a decade when Liverpool take on Tottenham at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid on June 1.

The Reds reached the Champions League final last season but ended up losing 3-1 to Real Madrid in the showpiece as they failed to win any silverware. They will be favourites to win the final after finishing second in the Premier League and beating Tottenham twice this season.

Tottenham, who have never won the European Cup or Champions League before, will be aiming to do the unthinkable next month.
