Liverpool will continue their preparations for the 2023-24 season when they take on Greuther Furth in a pre-season friendly behind-close-doors in Germany on Monday. The Reds are heading into the match on the back of a 4-2 win over Karlsruher SC in their pre-season opener in the mid-week, while the Cloverleaves lost 3-2 to Zurich last time out. The German side finished 12th in the 2022-23 2. Bundesliga standings having collected 41 points from 34 games. Jurgen Klopp’s side, on the other hand, could only manage to claim a fifth spot in the Premier League table last term and thereby had to settle of the Europa League place in the upcoming campaign.

Liverpool got the better of Karlsruher courtesy of Darwin Nunez’s third-minute opener, Cody Gakpo’s 69th-minute equaliser and Diogo Jota’s injury-time brace. New arrivals Dominik Szobosclai and Alexis Mac Allister both played their first minutes for the Reds on Wednesday, while long-serving captain Jordan Henderson was left out of the squad, as he closes in on a switch to Saudi Arabia, also a likely destination for Fabinho. After the game against Furth, Klopp’s men will fly to Singapore, where they will play two more exhibition games against the likes of Leicester City and Bayern Munich before returning to England for their final warm-up match against Darmstadt at Deepdale, and the Merseyside club will kickoff their 2023-24 Premier League season away to Chelsea on August 13.
Greuther Furth, on the other hand, have already played four pre-season friendlies, starting with back-to-back wins over Herzogenaurach (6-0) and Spvgg Ansbach 09 (5-2), before playing out a 4-4 draw against Gornik Zabrze and then lost out to Zurich last time out. On July 14, Cloverleaves suffered their first pre-season defeat of the season despite the fact that Dennis Srbeny and Dickson Abiama got on the scoresheet. Having been relegated to the second tier of German football courtesy a rock-bottom finish in the 2021-22 Bundesliga standings, Kleeblatter failed to make a quick return to the top division following a mid-table finish in the 2022-23 2. Bundesliga standings.
Greuther Furth probable starting lineup: Linde, Asta, Itter, Jung, Haddadi, Calhanoglu, Wagner, Consbruch, Green, Hrgota, Srbeny
Liverpool probable starting lineup: Kelleher, Gomez, Konate, Matip, Tsimikas, Alexander-Arnold, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Salah, Gakpo, Jota
