How to watch the Champions League Final: watch Tottenham Hotspur versus Liverpool FREE in the UK

The Spurs take on Liverpool for Europe's biggest football prize tonight at 8pm in Madrid

This is the first time in 11 years that two English teams will face off in the Champions League Final. 

Both Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool have overcome drastic odds to reach the final. Down 3-0 in the first leg against Barcelona, Liverpool completed a historic comeback to score four goals in the second leg at Anfield.

What made this even more impressive was that Liverpool was playing without two of their injured frontline strikers Mohammad Salah and Roberto Firmino.

A day later, Tottenham Hotspur pulled off another miraculous win. Down 1-0 to, the surprise package of the tournament, Ajax, Tottenham won 3-2 in Amsterdam, thereby winning on account of their away goals. Like Liverpool, the Spurs were playing without talismanic striker, Harry Kane.

Tonight, both teams will lace up with near full-strength squads. Harry Kane has declared himself fit for the Spurs’ first Champions League Final, while Liverpool have Mohammad Salah back and Roberto Firmino is declared fit, though Jurgen Klopp has not confirmed whether he will start. Midfielder Naby Keita is ruled out of the Final.
