    Obviously, there will be bias saying we deserve the CL because it's our team..


    ... But after the heroics of last year only to be denied in the final and then coming back again this year after 3-0 down against Barcelona, we would have a worthy story to tell if we won it ...


    ... But there again Ajax would be a Cinderella story. A small unfancied club, deposes several big teams (and Spurs too) to make it to the final as one last hoorah for a great group of young players that will be split apart during the summer transfers by the big guys.


    Spurs don't really have a good story... Bumbling their way through each match, they beat City but big whoop, they would be the only team that I think a neutral would say really wouldn't make a worthy winner.


    ... Still I guess the real worthy winner is who scores the most goals in the final... Bring it on.and good luck to us.

    I suspect many neutrals will be wanting an Ajax victory. In any other season, I'd be wanting the same...but Liverpool, so nah.

    We just beat the favourites.

    Robbed last year with dirty tactics and an inept goalkeeper. And if we can't win the league despite losing only 1 game, surely there has to be something at the end of it.

    We will be the favourites whether it's vs Spurs or Ajax so not many will want us to win, especially when you consider the bitter rivals.

    Ajax will be the neutrals choice.

    If we win the league, I don't really care much about the Champion League. Though it would be nice to win the two.

    I 100% care about winning the CL irrelevant of what happens in the league!

    Before last night, I'd forgotten about it as I thought we were already out and there was no chance of us turning it around. We did and now we are going to be the favourites no matter which team we face. It's one game AFTER the league is finished, the trophy is there to be taken!

      A ballot will take place for season ticket holders, Members and fan card holders who have recorded six Champions League matches during 2018-19.

      Premier Club and Carlsberg Dugout seasonal members will also be eligible to register for the ballot.

      Eligible supporters will be sent an email and SMS to the registered email address and mobile number on our ticketing system.

      Supporters can register up to four eligible supporters in one transaction; however, each supporter will be entered into the ballot as an individual. For example, if you register as a group of four, you will all be entered into the ballot separately and not altogether as a group, except for adult and junior ballot registrations.

      Eligible supporters can only register for one of the following ballots.
      • Adult/junior combined – (one adult and one junior only) from 9am on Thursday May 9 until 8am on Friday May 10
      • Ambulant disabled – from 9am on Thursday May 9 until 8am on Friday May 10
      • Adult only – from 9am on Friday May 10 until 8am on Monday May 13
      All supporters that register in the ballot will be notified of the results on Thursday May 16.

      We urge supporters to register for the ballot only if you are 100 per cent committed to purchasing a ticket. This will help us to ensure we can accommodate as many supporters as possible during the ballot sales.

      It is possible that only the higher priced tickets will be available during any ballot sales.

      Please click here for full details of the ballot process, including ticket sale dates.

      Sale for supporters successful in the ballot

      From 8.15am on Friday May 17 until 8am on Saturday May 18.

      If tickets still remain, they will be made available to supporters on the waiting list from 12pm on Saturday May 18 until 8am on Sunday May 19.

      Full details, including waiting list positions, will be advertised here.

      Ticket fulfilment (delivery of tickets)

      Supporters must select one of the following fulfilment methods during the booking.
      • UK POST (only for supporters whose address on our system is listed as being within the UK)
      Tickets will be sent special delivery to the registered address of the person making the booking, at a charge of £9.45.

      Please ensure when selecting this option that you will be able to accept delivery of your ticket.

      We are unable to provide duplicate tickets.
      • COLLECT IN MADRID (venue to be confirmed)
      Please ensure that the details provided at the time of booking (full details above) are the details for the supporter travelling to Madrid and attending the game.

      The person attending the game and named on the online form will have to collect their own ticket in Madrid - no exceptions.

      Supporters collecting tickets will be sent an email to the email address provided on the online form, week commencing Monday May 27.

      This will include a unique reference number and the collection point address.

      An SMS will also be sent to the mobile number provided on the online form.

      Photo ID and a copy of the email sent (printed version or shown on mobile) must be provided upon collection of tickets or tickets will not be issued.

      Overseas supporters

      Because of recent postal issues experienced by overseas supporters and to ensure tickets are not delayed or undelivered, all overseas supporters must choose the ‘COLLECT IN MADRID’ option when making your booking.

      For a full list of Q&As in relation to this match, click here.

      In order to provide a consistent service, the club has decided to not offer ‘Collect from Anfield’ as an option for this fixture. All tickets will either be posted out or made available for collection in Madrid ahead of the final.

      We would also like to remind supporters that important safety information for supporters travelling to Madrid will be provided in the lead-up to the game. The information provided is in conjunction with Spanish authorities and LFC officials, and we strongly advise that you follow all the information and instructions given.

      We urge supporters not to travel without a ticket.

    There was a hint of sarcasm in my post. Ala Barca were favourites and just turned up expecting...

    As for the final, its always better to be the underdog.

    If City made the final their requirement for a guaranteed ticket would be:
    • attendance of one football match (any club) recorded, or a note from a parent/guardian/friend saying you definitely did go
