Liverpool will play two matches against Basque side Athletic Club at Anfield on Monday as they step up their pre-season preparations ahead of the new campaign.
The Reds have won three and lost one of their friendlies this summer, with that sole defeat coming in the first of two matches on their Asian tour. The counter-attacking Milan punished some defensive sloppiness, but Liverpool recovered with a 3–1 win over Yokohama F. Marinos.
Arne Slot will name two separate starting lineups for the clashes with Athletic, which kick off three hours apart from one another. Most of the club’s senior squad will earn significant minutes on Liverpool’s return to Merseyside, while there will also be places for some of the club’s most exciting academy players.
Here is how Liverpool could line up for their upcoming friendlies.
