Liverpool fullback Alberto Moreno has warned Real Madrid's attack they face a huge test trying to get behind Virgil van Dijk.
Speaking with Marca, Moreno says Van Dijk's January arrival from Southampton has been key to Liverpool's run to the Champions League final.
The Spanish fullback said: "We have to be ourselves, to play like the whole season: to be incisive, to hurt the opponent, to press as always ... Then we must point out that the arrival of Van Dijk has helped us a lot in defence. It's noticeable.
"He is a top player, he is a captain in the defence, he is the one who drives everything from behind. Having improved the defence and with those three 'bugs' up top, we have it all."
Asked about Philippe Coutinho's January departure to Barcelona, Moreno also stated: "Are we better or worse? It's difficult.
"But (Mohamed) Salah has made us forget about Coutinho in a certain way. What Salah has done this season is incredible and has stopped him from being missed. With Coutinho we had a lot of creativity, a lot of end product ... in everything, but Salah is a goalscorer. He has something, that instinct that always finds the net. Coutinho was more creative."
