Liverpool face Tottenham in the Champions League final.

Jordan Henderson has been talking up opponents Tottenham Hotspur ahead of the Champions League final.

The two Premier League sides face off in Madrid on June 1.

Henderson is hoping to start for the Reds and helped Liverpool to a third victory over Tottenham this season.

Liverpool won both Premier League games 2-1.

Henderson told Liverpool’s official website that he and his teammates are prepared for a tough contest.

He said: “We all know how good Spurs are – great players and on the day, they can beat anybody really.

“So it’ll be a really tough final. So we need to be ready.”

Liverpool are hoping to win their sixth Champions League trophy, and Tottenham their first.

This is Liverpool’s third attempt to win a sixth, losing previously to AC Milan and Real Madrid.

Defeat against a Premier League side will hurt more, especially as Liverpool know they can beat them. But as Henderson says, they can take nothing for granted.
