MATCH PREVIEW:
Liverpool is in action as they face Spanish side, Athletic Club in their penultimate pre-season match at Anfield on Sunday.
The Reds come into this one on the back of a 2-0 and 1-0 win over Bologna in two friendly matches on Thursday and eye consistency ahead of the new season.
Liverpool will be upbeat with the signings made and look to get back to their best this season.
On the other hand, Athletic Club beat Southampton 3-1 in their last match on Saturday, which got them back to winning ways.
Vesga, Villalibre and Bednarek’s own goal helped the Spanish side beat the Saints. Walcott pulled one back for Southampton but it was nothing more than a consolation effort.
Both sides last met in a friendly match in August 2017 where Liverpool won 3-1. Firmino, Woodburn and Solanke scored for the Reds in that clash.
Line-ups:
Liverpool:
Becker, Robertson, Van Dijk, Konate, Tsimikas, Fabinho, Jones, Henderson, Salah, Jota and Mane
Athletic Club:
Agirrezabala, De Marcos, Alvarez, Martinez, Balenziaga, Williams, Sancet, Vencedor, Morcillo, Garcia and Villalibre
Prediction: Liverpool 2-0 Athletic Club
Liverpool has all their players fit and raring to go and we expect them to get a win under their belt once again.
Athletic Club has a few issues and eye consistency ahead of the new season. They will find it difficult against an in-form Liverpool setup.
