Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has dismissed suggestions the Champions League final will be determined by the fitness of Liverpool’s midfield – and expects plenty of backing from Everton supporters.
Fabinho and Thiago Alcantara are both expected to be available for Liverpool in Saturday’s showpiece at the Stade de France despite having been hampered by injury problems during the build-up.
And while there remain doubts over whether one or both will start, Ancelotti doesn’t believe Liverpool counterpart Jurgen Klopp will select unfit players.
