Liverpool plays the final game of its tour of Asia today as it takes on Yokohama F Marinos in Japan, with eyes firmly on the start of the new Premier League season.
We're now just a little over two weeks away from the Reds getting their title defense underway against Bournemouth on August 15, and Arne Slot's side will be aiming to bounce back following Saturday's defeat at the hands of AC Milan.
They will be expected to beat their Japanese opponent today, with plenty to look out for from a Reds perspective, especially with another debut set to be handed out to Hugo Ekitike following his move from Eintracht Frankfurt last week.
