What the managers have said 

Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool manager: "They’re the most decorated club in the competition. Some of their players can win it for a fifth time and the manager can win it for the fourth time. We can’t buy that experience, but we’re here for the third time in five years – that’s special. We’re not thinking about how it will feel to win. Being 'us' at the highest level would be really cool," Klopp on Real Madrid, according to UEFA.com 

Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid manager: "I've got good memories from the finals I've been in. I lost against Liverpool in 2005 and ironically that was probably the best performance one of my teams has given in a final! We've had time to prep, we are in a good moment, we'll give our best – we'll see whether that's enough to win the game, as sometimes in football things can happen that are beyond your control."(as per UEFA.com)

Champions League final preview: Liverpool seek revenge over Real Madrid in re-match

Going into it, Liverpool's injury concerns have eased ahead with midfielders Fabinho and Thiago Alcantara back in full training. Thiago was the biggest worry for manager Jurgen Klopp after the Spaniard came off with an Achilles tendon injury in the first half of their win over Wolves.

Fabinho, another central midfielder, appears to have recovered from the hamstring injury sustained on 10 May and which forced him to miss the FA Cup final and Liverpool's final two league games.

Madrid should be fresher after clinching LaLiga almost a month ago. Coach Carlo Ancelotti was able to rest his key players for the final four matches of the league.

It is the third meeting between the teams in the European Cup final, with Liverpool winning in 1981 — also in Paris — and Madrid winning in Kyiv in 2018.
