Liverpool have no chance of winning if Thiago and Fabinho are both out. They might play but will probably be carrying a knock or in Fabinho's case, be unfit. Henderson is reliable but needs Fabinho with him. When he's on his own without Fabinho or Wijnaldum (who Liverpool really should have replaced) he struggles. And against Modric and Kroos, he will struggle big time. Keita is decent against average Premier League teams but totally out of his depth against top sides.
Klopp will have to come up with something special to win this match as Real will dominate the midfield.

Liverpool have same amount of chance with or without them, thats how klopp strikes me. They play the same, the only question is if real would show up and have tons of luck. Even then is 50-50.

Still leaning towards Liverpool. The big thing Madrid will have is self belief. Klopp is the better manager but Ancelotti has the experience. Liverpool better in defence and attack, Madrid better in midfield. 3-1 Pool.

So be it!

But if Klopp chokes for the third time in a row in front of them that won't look good at all for him and Liverpool.

Obviously? I would rather play their reserve midfield, but now they will be full strength.

lol obviously not. Just shows how bad you want to victimize yourself. Just because you are not lucky does not mean you are unlucky. Meaning you would be LUCKY had he picked up a serious injury in the last game of the season unallowing him to play CL. Both teams should have all players available.

Guess you have gotten too used to being lucky.

We've had pretty much the toughest draw in CL-history mate, and we couldn't even have one out of their two best midfielders be injuried for a little while longer.

That not being lucky, we can't get a break these days.

And i don't care about the "glory" of beating Liverpool at their best, any advantage going into the final i would take.

It's up there but you can argue a stronger case for United 98/99, Barca 14/15, and RM 17/18.

Barca's path in 14/15 wasn't even a particularly tough one. There's no comparison between that and what Madrid have faced this year.

17-18 was a tougher path for Madrid but still not as much as this year's.
