Tonight: Platinum Stars v Black Leopards

Wednesday: Black Leopards v

Jomo Cosmos

June 2: Jomo Cosmos v Platinum Stars Both Real Madrid and Liverpool go into tonight’s Uefa Champions league final in Kiev having endured a gruelling campaign in this season’s tournament, which was full of many upsets and surprising results.

Undoubtedl­y though, the teams have shown great competitiv­eness and played some of their best football thus far.

Real, with the exceptiona­l Cristiano Ronaldo in their side, will be aiming to lift the trophy for the third time in a row. The Portuguese striker has already scored 15 goals in the Champions League and will be one player Liverpool will be aiming to keep quiet and make sure he doesn’t even have a sniff at goals.

The Reds, meanwhile, will be relying on the forever improving Mo Salah, who continues to impress. The Egyptian has played a major role in helping the English side get into this stage of the competitio­n. Salah, who is on his first season with Liverpool, has scored 10 goals in the tournament for the Merseyside­rs. This is a difficult one to call, but I will go for a Madrid hat-trick.
