The Reds face their toughest test of pre-season so far as they take on the German giants in Singapore. Liverpool have impressed across four friendlies so far this summer, remaining unbeaten and scoring four in every game to date.
Darwin Nunez has already chipped in with four goals, while Jota has five goal involvements and Mohamed Salah boasts six ahead of their penultimate pre-season run out. This afternoon’s game will be no stroll in the park, though, as Bayern put their own squad through their paces.
There will be no reunion for Sadio Mane, who yesterday left Bayern for Al Nassr, while top transfer target Harry Kane still remains a Spurs player.
