Jurgen Klopp has warned Real Madrid that their experience of playing in Champions League finals will only take them so far on Saturday.

Real are bidding to win the Champions League for the third successive year and Klopp admits that may give them a psychological edge prior to kick-off.
However, the German also pointed out that the teams have not met competitively during that period and Liverpool's own record in Europe is not to be sniffed at as they chase a sixth crown.

 "Experience is very important and I'm pretty sure that in the seconds before the game Real will be more confident than we are," he said.

 "But it's not a problem because the game doesn't end in that second, it only starts.

 "We are Liverpool. Not only are we a really good football team, it's in the club's DNA to go for the big things.
