Both teams have the same squad depth that is quite capable in terms of attacking, but compared to real madrid I think liverpool has a better defense now, without underestimating madrid but in my opinion liverpool chance to get the UCL trophy is greater than madrid at this time, performance Liverpool in every phase of the game they live is quite stable until it reaches the final round and that's why I am very sure that this season UCL trophy will return to England.
Although both team have losing many goal home and away on knock out round I think Liverpool have good defensive than Real Madrid, I don't sure with Militao as regular player defender for Real Madrid because many time he made blunder and give chance for against team. But looks solid with Van Dijk and Joe Matip as Liverpool defender but I believing with Real Madrid defensive still help by holding midfielder. Excited waiting two weeks later for UEFA Champion League final match between Liverpool vs Real Madrid and I hope with Madrid get double trophies in this season after success get La Liga trophy.
Yes, I know that Liverpool has a very good defense compared to Real Madrid. If we actually look at both squads we will see that the Liverpool squad seems to be a lot better overall compared to the Real Madrid squad.
But, Real Madrid has Benzema who has been playing really well and scoring a lot of goals. I believe he is a real contender for the Ballon d'Or. So I think with this defense Liverpool actually will be able to defend quite well and also stop Benzema.
It is sure that players of Liverpool is strong enough compare to Real Madrid. But Real Madrid is UCL king and they have a good reputation in UCL. Not only Benzema but also Vini, Rodrygo, Luka, Kroos all are available. Defense like Marcelo, Militao are aslo good to support.
