Liverpool continues its pre-season preparations later today as it faces AC Milan in Hong Kong in a replay of the famous 2005 Champions League final.
The Reds have been out in Asia this week as they step things up ahead of their Premier League title defense next season, with Arne Slot's team having already recorded wins over Preston and Stoke City this summer.
Milan will provide their toughest test yet, and we may get a first glimpse at what Liverpool's boss considers to be his strongest team following what has been a busy summer - and it may yet get busier thanks to Alexander Isak.

Early team news
Hugo Ekitike could make his first appearance for Liverpool today, having completed his move from Eintracht Frankfurt on Wednesday. Having not spent much time with his new teammates in Hong Kong though, he may be held back for next week's friendly against Yokohama F Marinos in Japan.
Alexis Mac Allister looks as though he could miss the game as he continues his recovery from injury. The midfielder hasn't yet returned to team training, although he has been seen stepping things up out on the grass, suggesting he might not be too far off.
It will be interesting to see whether Luis Diaz features at all in today's game. The Colombian didn't play either games against Preston or Stoke City amid ongoing links with Bayern Munich, and today may provide another big hint on his future.
