Liverpool vs Real Madrid: Champions League final prediction, kick off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h

For the 63rd and final time this season, Liverpool will take to the pitch when they face Real Madrid in the Champions League final on Saturday night.

The Reds have played in every possible match, reaching the final in all three knockout competitions, and their focus is now on adding European glory to the FA Cup and Carabao Cup. Liverpool’s quadruple hopes are over, after Manchester City’s dramatic Premier League title win, but the Champions League is far more than just a consolation prize.

In a repeat of the 2018 final, Jurgen Klopp’s side face Real Madrid and they will be hoping for a very different outcome. Gareth Bale scored twice that day in a 3-1 win for Real - that must feel a long time ago for the Welshman who brings his time in Spain to an end this summer.

It’s been an incredible run to the final from the La Liga champions, who have looked almost certain to be knocked out on more than one occasion. That was the case in the semi-finals against Manchester City, as Rodrygo produced two stoppage-time goals in no time at all to take the tie to extra-time, where Karim Benzema finished the job.

What we’ve seen from these two sides throughout the season would suggest it could be a final full of goals and last-minute drama in Paris.

Liverpool vs Real Madrid is scheduled for a 8pm BST kick-off on Saturday, May 28, 2022.

The Stade de France in Paris will host the match.

TV channel: The match will be televised on BT Sport 1. Coverage begins at 6pm BST, two hours before kick-off.
