Liverpool take on Bayern Munich in Singapore on Wednesday in what will be their toughest pre-season test so far.
Jurgen Klopp’s team impressed as they despatched Leicester City 4-0 on Sunday thanks to goals from Darwin Nunez, Bobby Clark, Diogo Jota, and Ben Doak.
Team News
Klopp will be without the injured Conor Bradley for the clash with the Bundesliga champions.
Thiago Alcantara and Stefan Bajcetic will also be missing as they stayed behind on Merseyside to continue their recovery from hip and adductor injuries.
In defence, all indications suggest that last season’s regulars are likely to start the new season when the Premier League gets underway against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The midfield is far from clear however after Fabinho and Jordan Henderson left the club leaving no fit recognised number six available to Klopp.
There are no such worries in attack however with five senior options in form and available to the Liverpool manager. Youngster Doak is also doing everything he can to force his way into the reckoning for a place in the Reds squad this season.
Virgil van Dijk is likely to captain the side for the first time since he was officially announced by the club.
Predicted Liverpool Team
Alisson Becker;
Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk, Andy Robertson;
Alexis Mac Allister, Curtis Jones, Dominik Szoboszlai;
Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo, Luis Diaz
