Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool are all set to square off in the Champions League final tomorrow night.

Former professional footballer Matt le Tissier looks on during day fifteen of the Ladbrokes.com World Darts Championship at Alexandra Palace on December 30, 2013 in London, England.

Matt Le Tissier has backed Liverpool to beat Tottenham in a high scoring game in the Champions League final in Madrid on Saturday night, when speaking exclusively to Sky Sports.

Spurs have surprised many by reaching the Champions League final, whilst the Reds were heavily tipped to win the competition right from the very start.

Liverpool head into the game as clear favourites, but Tottenham will certainly fancy their chances.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side will have to be at their very best to beat Jurgen Klopp’s men, but they will know that they are more than capable of producing the goods.

Le Tissier suggested that Liverpool will be too good for Tottenham, however, predicting a 3-2 win for Klopp’s side, when speaking exclusively to Sky Sports:

“I think Liverpool are the stronger team and have proved that they have been a stronger team throughout the campaign. I fully expect them to take home the trophy.”

Prediction: Tottenham 2-3 Liverpool

Both sides will most likely play at an incredibly high tempo, and from a neutral perspective, there should be a fantastic game of football on display at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium.

Tottenham and Liverpool will feel as though this is their year, having produced miraculous comebacks in their respective semi-final clashes, but there will of course be one team leaving Madrid empty-handed.

And both sides will be desperate to avoid that fate.
