As well as the usual Reds golden oldies like Steve McManaman, Robbie Fowler, Jason McAteer and Luis Garcia, cult favourites such as Abel Xavier, Jerzy Dudek, Paddy Berger and Stephane Henchoz will also take to the field.

On the white side, we wonder if Fernando Morientes will celebrate if he scores? We’ll also see Zinedine Zidane, Claude Makelele and Roberto Carlos for good measure.

Real Madrid: Buyo, Roberto Carlos, Pavon, Sanchis, Salgado, Zidane, Solari, Makelele, Karembeu, Butragueno, Morientes.

Liverpool: Dudek, Xavier, Henchoz, Carragher, McAteer, McManaman, Berger, Luis Garcia, Owen, Fowler, Bellamy.
