Players like Kroos and Modric will be crucial for Madrid to take control of the midfield. However, the front two—Benzema and Vinicius Jr.—have forged an excellent relationship this season. They will be pivotal in scaring Liverpool's defense, as they have done throughout the season. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp is well-known for his fondness for heavy metal football. He expects more from his players and always urges them to keep going. Klopp's ideal system is 4-3-3, and he has Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, and Luis Diaz upfront to carry out his game plan. These three have the ability to terrorize the opposition defense and steal the game from them. Fabinho and Thiago have been outstanding in midfield. Liverpool have a powerful defense as well. Prediction: Real Madrid 3-2 Liverpool Bottom Line The Real Madrid vs Liverpool final match is likely to be enthralling, considering they are two of the most successful clubs in UEFA Champions League history. The last time they played in a final was in Kyiv's Olimpiyskiy Stadium in 2018. Real Madrid claimed their 13th UCL title with a 3-1 victory in the final. Therefore, Liverpool have an opportunity to avenge that defeat, and they have a strong squad to do so. The majority of people are likely to have placed their bets on Liverpool. However, Real Madrid also have an equal chance in the match. In the Champions League this season, Madrid's main mantra has been to create a magical moment and shatter the opponent's defense. If Liverpool do not prepare well, Real Madrid can steal the match from them. Read Kylian Mbappe: The French International Makes a Fortune by Extending his Contract with PSG
