Real Madrid is a fixture that needs no introduction. One of the most storied and glamorous encounters in Champions League history, Tuesday’s meeting at Anfield sees the clash between clubs that can boast a combined 21 European crowns.

While Real has tended to have the better of Liverpool, it was the Reds who won last year’s encounter, a night made almost as famous by a Conor Bradley sliding tackle as much as for securing an important three points in the Champions League. The latter has spoken in great detail ahead of Tuesday’s game, in an interview with Amazon Prime.

Then it’s Real’s turn, with Alonso hosting a press conference alongside a Real player, but Los Blancos have opted against training on the Anfield pitch, as is customary for visiting sides. Real Madrid is perhaps the most eagerly anticipated game of the Champions League league phase, and we've got all the pre-match build-up sorted here.
