Good evening and welcome to live text commentary of the Champions League final between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid at the Estadio da Luz. It's the first ever same-city final as Lisbon prepares to host what could be the biggest Madrid derby in history.

Dani Carvajal whips over a cross towards Ronaldo but the Portuguese is just eased out of it by Juanfran.

Lots of possession early on for Real. But it won't faze Atletico who have built their success on that strong rearguard.

STAT: Real Madrid have the best attacking record in the Champions League this season, scoring 37 goals in 12 games. They are the only team in Champions League history (since 1992/93) to average over 3 goals per game in a single campaign (3.1).

Real have started brightly.

Dutchman Bjorn Kuipers is tonight's referee.

KICK OFF! Real get the 2014 CL final underway.

Here come the players! Who will be top dog in the Spanish capital later this evening? We're about to find out... GAME ON!

BIRD'S EYE VIEW: Don't miss the live tweets of Eurosport's very own Tom Adams, who is all set up in the Estadio da Luz pressbox.

Atletico Madrid have won only two of their last 30 competitive games against Real Madrid (7 draws), both victories coming in 2013 at the Bernabeu in the Copa del Rey final and in la Liga. However, Atletico have won four of their five finals against Real Madrid, all in the Copa del Rey.

Under 10 minutes until kick off!

Any predictions? Who is going to prevail? Our man in Lisbon, Tom Adams is tipping Real to land La Decima - do you agree?

STAT: Atletico Madrid are the only team unbeaten in the Champions League this season (9 wins, 3 draws). Manchester Utd are the last team to lift the Champions League trophy without losing a single game in that season’s competition. That was back in 2007/08.

A SHOOT OUT OF HOT-SHOTS? Diego Costa has scored eight goals in eight Champions League games this season. That’s half as many as Ronaldo, but who will shine brightest tonight?

PHOTO: Which set of players will get their hands on ol' big ears later tonight?

Ronaldo has netted a CL record of 16 goals in a single season, but could have his work cut out to add to that against a stubborn Atletico rearguard. Indeed, Diego Simeone's men have the best defensive record in the competition this term, conceding only six goals in 12 games.

PHOTO: Real's main man is fit and ready. The Portuguese star has scored 37 goals in his last 29 Champions League games.

Eurosport's Tom Adams is over in Lisbon casting his eye over the pre-match routines. You can follow his tweets live from the Estadio da Luz pressbox here: @tomeurosport and @eurosportcom_en

Carlo Ancelotti could become only the second manager to win three European Cup/Champions League titles after Bob Paisley who won all three with Liverpool (1977, 1978, 1981).

Poor old Xabi Alonso misses out through suspension tonight after three yellows in 13 CL matches.

PHOTO: Real's players begin their warm up.

STAT: Atletico Madrid have reached the final of the European Cup/Champions League for the first time since 1974 when they eventually lost in the final against Bayern Munich after a replay. Can they break their duck tonight?
