What They're Saying
Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino (via the club's official website): "I've received a warm welcome from the teammates who are here and I trust I will have the same from those who are on tour at the moment. I hope I can join up with them soon and get on well with everyone so we can do our best together on the pitch."
Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet (via the club's official website): "We don't really know what to expect. But for us, it's more about making sure we do our jobs and we put in a performance, and also the minutes of play we want. That's the most important thing in preseason; we're still trying to get our fitness levels back. That's going really well at the moment and this game will help us to do that again. The welcome we had in Malaysia was similar to the ones we had in Australia and Thailand. It's always nice to see that."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Jordan Ibe will have the opportunity to become a first-team regular this preseason. The 19-year-old made 12 appearances last season, averaging two take-ons.
Liverpool's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Mignolet; Clyne, Lovren, Skrtel, Gomez; Milner, Henderson, Allen; Ibe, Origi, Lallana
