There's no exiting this stadium without a winner tonight as it's the second leg of the Champions League 8th Finals meeting between Liverpool and Atlético Madrid. Game on!

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

These teams have little in common geographically as Atlético Madrid have to travel 2000 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
