It’s an unprecedented state of affairs, with the Reds having beforehand performed two video games in two days in pre-season however by no means twice on the identical day!
However with so many gamers having solely returned to coaching this week, taking part in time is required so this resolution has been discovered as the 2 Spanish sides arrive at Anfield.
Fairly how Arne Slot divides the squad shall be extraordinarily attention-grabbing. Will it’s all of the gamers who’ve been concerned in pre-season already towards Sevilla, and the gamers simply returning towards Las Palmas? Or will it’s a mixture for every?
Liverpool vs. Sevilla – 12.30pm
Sunday, August 11 | 12.30pm (BST)
Anfield – full capability
This may, in fact, be the primary time Slot will coach a workforce at Anfield, which could have a full capability for the lunchtime kick off.

Sunday, August 11 | 5pm (BST)
Anfield – behind-closed-doors
A rapidly organized pleasant, fellow La Liga aspect Las Palmas arrive at Anfield for the late kick off, seemingly so Slot can get extra gamers taking part in time.
Fairly why there have been solely 4 friendlies organized when Slot first arrived into the membership is questionable.
Followers gained’t be in attendance for this one, which was solely introduced earlier this week.
Las Palmas even have a brand new supervisor this summer time, Luis Carrion, and completed sixteenth in La Liga final season.

Liverpool workforce information and obtainable squad
We may, or maybe ought to, have a full squad obtainable. Nevertheless, there are is only one uncertainty.
Andy Robertson, we have been instructed, was as a consequence of begin coaching in direction of the top of the tour within the USA however didn’t. Whether or not he has achieved so since returning to Merseyside, the membership haven’t revealed.
Ben Doak performed for the Beneath-21s in midweek and with six senior forwards now obtainable he may properly miss out on Sunday.
The likes of Doak, Tyler Morton, Trey Nyoni, Amara Nallo, James McConnell, Harvey Blair, Kaide Gordon and Lewis Koumas will possible solely be concerned as substitutes at Anfield.

Lineup Two: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Gomez, Endo, Mac Allister, Gravenberch, Gakpo, Nunez, Diaz
It appears extremely unlikely that any participant shall be concerned within the squad for each video games.
