The NBA great believes the Reds will edge out Real Madrid in the upcoming final.

LeBron James has predicted Liverpool will win a seven-goal clash to claim the Champions League title on May 28.

The Reds will face Real Madrid in a rematch of their UCL final clash in 2018. 

The Blancos defeated the Premier League giants 3-1 in that game. But James believes they won’t be able to repeat their success this time around.

During a Twitter Q&A on Monday, James responded to a fan who asked him about his prediction for the upcoming game.

“4-3 US!!!! YNWA,” the Liverpool part-owner replied.

A hardcore Liverpool fan, James invested in the club in 2011. The NBA great would love to see the Reds claiming their third trophy of the season when they face Real Madrid.

Liverpool have already won the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup this season. Jurgen Klopp’s side still have a slight chance to leapfrog Manchester City in the Premier League title race. 

However, that largely depends on Aston Villa’s ability to stop the Citizens on the final matchday of the campaign next week.

For now, the Reds must focus on their next league game against Southampton on Tuesday. Let’s see if Klopp’s side can keep their quadruple hopes alive by beating the Saints.
