Tottenham vs Liverpool line-ups: Champions League Final 2019 confirmed team news and starting XIs

Tottenham and Liverpool will contest the first all-English Champions League Final for the first time since 2008 on Saturday night.

Spurs have reached the final of the European Cup for the first time in their history while Jurgen Klopp and his side will be looking to banish the scars of Kiev a year ago and claim Liverpool’s sixth title in the competition.

Here is how both teams are shaping up in Madrid…

Tottenham

Spurs XI: Lloris; Trippier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Winks, Sissoko, Alli; Eriksen, Son, Kane

Subs: Gazzaniga, Vorm, Sanchez, Foyth, Davies, Aurier, Dier, Walker-Peters, Wanyama, Lucas, Lamela, Llorente

Harry Kane starts after recovering from an ankle injury which has kept him out since April.

The England captain replaces hat-trick hero from Amsterdam Lucas Moura in the team.

Harry Winks, who joined the club as a five-year-old, also makes his comeback following groin surgery.

Liverpool

Liverpool XI: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson; Fabinho, Henderson, Wijnaldum; Mane, Salah, Firmino

Subs: Mignolet, Lovren, Gomez, Sturridge, Moreno, Lallana, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Shaqiri, Brewster, Origi, Kelleher

However, he is ready to play and joins Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane in that deadly front three.

The other headline comes in midfield, where James Milner misses out as Georginio Wijnaldum, Fabinho and Jordan Henderson get the nod from Jurgen Klopp.

The Yorkshireman will be gutted, but he's an excellent sub to have.
