Liverpool face Como at Anfield this evening in their final pre-season friendly, with kick-off at 6pm BST. The match is the second between the sides today, following a 0-0 draw behind closed doors at the AXA Training Centre earlier this afternoon.
Team news and key players
Several first-team players did not feature in the earlier draw and are expected to be involved this evening. Alisson Becker, Virgil van Dijk, Ronald Araujo, Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez, Ryan Gravenberch, Curtis Jones, Dominik Szoboszlai, Florian Wirtz, Cody Gakpo, and Alexander Isak were among those rested for the behind-closed-doors match.
Some of those players, including Kerkez, Szoboszlai, and Jones, were present at the training ground to support their team-mates. Unless there are any unknown selection issues, all of them are expected to feature in front of the Anfield crowd.
Possible changes for the evening match
Victor Munoz, Harvey Elliott, and Federico Chiesa were substituted after 45 minutes in the earlier encounter, so it would not be a surprise if they are named on the bench for the evening game.
The friendly marks the end of new head coach Andoni Iraola's first summer in charge of the Reds, as the team puts the finishing touches on preparations for the new Premier League campaign.
