KICK-OFF!


Liverpool get the ball rolling at Anfield!

Liverpool 0-0 Lille


1: CHANCE! Lille out of the traps like lightning as they issue an early statement of intent which very nearly silences Anfield.


Left-back Gudmundsson bundles his way down the left flank and into the Liverpool area, who he blazes wide of Alisson's near post. That was close, the Brazilian goalkeeper was concerned.

17: Liverpool alert to a loose kick out from the back from Chevalier, which is pounced on by Tsimikas. He heads the ball forward, plays a one-two with Diaz and then whips a first-time cross into the six-yard box, but there isn't a red shirt on hand to capitalise.

"I think it made sense, given the position Liverpool are in, to rotate this evening and give starts to the likes of Bradley, Quansah, Jones, Nunez and Tsimikas.... all be it Tsimikas started against Brentford. 

"And after an early scare in the opening seconds when Gudmundsson had a shot on goal after getting the better of Bradley, Liverpool have settled and had their first shot on target. Mo Salah's curler was easy for Chevalier. Salah without a goal in three games now..... if he stretches it to four this evening it will be his longest run of the season without a goal. That maybe emphasises just how productive he's been."

While results are never the main focus in pre-season, the Gunners have suffered back-to-back losses so returning to winning ways could provide a welcome confidence boost ahead of the trip to Old Trafford . Team news reminder Here is how both teams will line-up today. Arsenal XI:   Raya , Timber , Saliba , Gabriel , Calafiori , Zubimendi , Rice , Odegaard (C), Saka , Gyoker...
