Summary

The Champions League final in Madrid is upon us as Liverpool aim to become six-time champions of Europe against Tottenham Hotspur. Kristian Walsh and Josh Williams offer all the tactical and statistical analysis you need on this special episode, with the duo looking back at the previous two meetings between the two teams this season in an effort to find out just what could happen in the Spanish capital. The question of whether this will play more like a Premier League or Champions League game - and who that benefits - is discussed, as is the biggest weak link in Mauricio Pochettino's side. The importance of Roberto Firmino and Harry Kane is also revealed, while there is a run-down of just why the Reds shouldn't fear Spurs... and why there is a fair bit for the North London team to fear about Jurgen Klopp's mentality monsters. But beware of overconfidence - Tottenham are tougher than most think and there is evidence to prove it. Come on Liverpool!
