Biggest game of the season, what a match in prospect,I see goals of course, and with a heavy heart see Real coming out on top.
Both teams shaky at the back, both good attacking players,both teams can counter very quickly,but in midfield I believe Real have the edge,and that is why I think they can edge it, but I hope Liverpool can make it another memorable night in Europe.

Real worthy favourites as they have so much attacking quality. I'd actually say Liverpool's defence is slightly better but as you say if the likes of Kroos and Modric get to dictate it and feed Ronaldo and Bale then there aren't many teams who can cope.
Far from a hopeless situation though and we have a chance if we play our way and are diligent when needed. Simply can't wait now. |

Liverpool will do what they did to city and roma.
total destruction early and put the match out of sight for the opponents. |

Tie was over after seventy minutes at Anfield.
Liverpool will tear Madrid apart. |

Madrid will shut up shop, did so against Man City when they had to in both legs, will do the same here and hit them on the counter, Madrid 0-2.

Real are not the force they were. PSG were by far the better side in the 1st leg over there and the scoreline was a travesty. Then BM were again very unlucky not to progress. This 'playing badly and winning' stuff you can keep - this is a one off and I'd much prefer to put my money on the better side : for me that is clearly Liverpool.

If Salah is on the end of half the chances squandered by PSG & BM he will get a hat-trick.

This 'playing badly and winning' stuff you can keep - this is a one off and I'd much prefer to put my money on the better side 95% of people lose on betfair dont they? that statement is outrageous from a gambler, by all means support and cheer on the better team but nobody is forcing you to put cash down |

By:
Perhaps you took me too literally or I didn't make myself clear - Liverpool imo are the better side if having a gamble or not.
|

By:
I would say they are pretty well matched Madrid have the bigger named individual stars both fallible at the back both capable up front
A case of can the collective overcome the individual imo if I was having a wager I’d back Ronaldo to get a card because he could foul someone he’s capable of dissent should something go against him always chance of simulation and if he scores the tops coming off |

lol ^ last minute goal and def' the tops off and ..............pose !

By:
I wouldn't say BM were unlucky to go through they were beyond awful in the first leg.
|
|
By:
Main concern for LFC is whether they will be lethargic & off the pace due to big gap since their last game.

RP, what do you mean by "IF he scores ?"

Spurs made Madrid look ordinary. Depends which team perform best on night, Liverpool the value.

Real Madrid's players just all strike me having more nous than Liverpool's, I will be watching Jordan Henderson closely to see what he actually does on the biggest of big stages, esp as Captain.
|

By:
The amount of times BM & PSG cut Real wide open makes me think Liverpool will win. I can't see Salah and Firmino missing one great chance after another (Mane perhaps!) as those teams did.
|

By:
That is true, Muller at the end of the game in the second leg with that ball over the top...could have finished them. Alas, the self-proclaimed kings of Europe are in the final yet again.
|

By:
I'm predicting 4-1. Real don't mess about in finals, all their season leading to this. Liverpool will be chasing shadows I suspect and I get the feeling just happy to be there. 2.3 on Real in the match odds is a must. I'll take 11's on any other home win too.

Real Madrid are getting underrated by people. There's still a lot of quality in that team, and a team that just knows how to win when it matters. People will say they didn't look good in any round yet they have come out of about as one of the toughest routes to the final you can imagine. They have beaten the champions of 3 of the top 5 leagues of Europe, if they were as bad as some people are claiming they wouldn't be here.
Bayern totally dominated the midfield is why they were able to dominate the games, but it's hard to see Liverpool's midfield doing the same thing, so I highly doubt Liverpool walk all over them like Bayern were able to do (and then not take the chances). |

I don’t think anyone will underrate the champions of the competition of the last two seasons some may have seen their last two rounds of the competition where they conceded a fair few chances and a few goals
They may look at Liverpool’s front three and think they will get chances I’d make them favorites to win it it’s just a one off game with many variants Overcoming teams in a two legged affair is very different to a one off game |

Which team do forumites think have the edge in terms of pace I am not quite sure myself.

liverpool will taer real a new one!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm English so I should really be rooting for the scousers. 20 years I definitely would've.
Nowadays only 6 teams dominant the EPL. and the greedy so and sos have secret meetings to find ways of getting a greater share of the overseas rights money thus making the league even less competitive (more elite centric). Destroying the very thing that makes the EPL the greatest league in the world. I will see how I feel on the day. |

start with a goal from Ronaldo scored 60 ... ONE A GAME so far .. the team are winners .. on most occasions ..seldom fluff their games ..
Liverpool only had 110 Minutes of the play to try and win ..in an Extra Time ..Final . 10 mins from ..opposition team in EXTRA TIME WAS ENOUGH TO SINK THEM .. every minute needs to count to win the CHAMPIONS LEAGUE ..FINAL .. add up the Leaders of teams players .. probably edge goes to ..REAL MADRID .. ITS QUALITY AT THIS LEVEL .. very tough task they have ..Wish them all the best .. ... this game is star on top of your .... CHRISTMAS TREE . enormous task .. for sure .. NEED TO BE VERY STRONG TO GRAB THE BIG STAR ON THIS GAME .. GOOD LUCK ANYWAY . ............. Stop RONALDO will enhance your chances . Watches from the wings studies the task ahead jumps in for KILL rather quickly .. Beware .. ? |

listening to some of klippitys comments in the run up to the big game have really pressed home to me what a massive guesser he is and just goes to show why hes been a failure as a manager, despite the media selling him as a cross between plato and alex ferguson. just trotting out tired old cliches we've been hearing for decades "real are very good but it is a one off so who knows", "football can be a funny game sometimes", "yes they have experience but we have passion" etc
all he has to do is wave his arms around at the stands and it doesnt matter if theyre drawing 0-0 at home to watford, suddenly he becomes a man of the people again. even wenger has achieved more |

Will UEFA mind an English team winning it or will the prefer history with RM winning 3 on the trot? Probably the latter, dodgy red for pool and pen for RM at some point!

I had a look at the liverpool and ac milan teams from 2005, and on paper meelan were far superior yet somehow failed to lift the trophy. The one off game scenario can often cause the formbook to go out the window.

I like Real and Ronaldo but I would prefer to see Liverpool win. What I would particularly like to see is Ramos being utterly humbled by Salah ( or any other 'pool players ). If ever there was a player who needs brought down a few pegs it is him. Seeing him blubbing and crying like Buffon would be just marvellous! C'mon the 'pool. GetItRightUpReal!
