. Liverpool are enjoying a remarkable season despite narrowly missing out an unprecedented quadruple on Sunday. Perennial Premier League rivals Manchester City aside, they've consistently been top of the class for every assignment sent their way.

Real Madrid, on the other hand, may have already been crowned Spanish champions, but their European campaign defies both belief and description after a series of stellar comebacks. Their journey to this point could fill a novel, and the final chapter is yet to be written.

Expert predictions

Matthew Howarth, Liverpool reporter
Liverpool may have shown signs of tiredness of late, but despite conceding first in each of their final four Premier League games they still managed to collect ten points. Pipped to the league title by Manchester City, the Reds now have the chance to cap an otherwise phenomenal campaign with their third trophy of 2021/22.

Jürgen Klopp, by his own admission, has never had a stronger squad to play with during his Anfield tenure. Luis Díaz, the latest addition to the German’s multi-talented ensemble, played a starring role in the semi-final and could do so again in Paris, whether from the bench or as a starter.

Joseph Walker, Madrid reporter

Here we are once again. What is it with Madrid and this competition? Granted, this season they have chanced their arm a few times, but their resilience, grit and determination have ensured they live up to old club saying 'El Madrid nunca se rinde' (Madrid never gives up).

They have been indebted to Karim Benzema’s stunning campaign, while youngster Rodrygo has been the very definition of a ‘clutch’ player in the big games. With Liverpool looking fatigued – not to mention coach Carlo Ancelotti’s brilliant record – Madrid have a wonderful opportunity to make it 14 European Cups.
ADVERTISEMENT View from the camps Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool coach: "Outstanding, massive – it feels like the first one because it's always so special."

Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid coach:

"Something strange has happened. Since the start of the season we have played very strong teams who believed they'd win the Champions League – Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea, Man. City. Credit goes to the players and our fanbase, who push and push and push. The shirt carries weight – the pride of the club. For me, a final with Liverpool is like a derby because I continue to be an Evertonian." Mohamed Salah, Liverpool forward: "We have a score to settle."
