Just a week out from their Premier League opener, Liverpool conclude their preseason campaign by facing Como in a friendly at Anfield on Sunday.
The Reds will actually play the Italian side twice on the same day, first dueling in a behind-closed-doors clash in the morning, before a proper meeting between the sides in the afternoon.
Andoni Iraola will be eager to snap a two-game losing streak, which began with a 4–2 loss to Leeds United in the United States and was followed by a 3–2 defeat to Monaco on Merseyside. Both matches have seen Liverpool surrender two-goal leads as their defense comes under increasing scrutiny.
Bar those sidelined through injury, Liverpool will have their full complement available to them at the weekend, even including World Cup finalist Alexis Mac Allister. Iraola will hope his strongest lineup can earn a third preseason win before the league clash with Newcastle United next Sunday.
Como will provide stern resistance, however. The Serie A outfit dazzled under Cesc Fàbregas last season as they qualified for the Champions League. They have some impressive talent in their roster and will aim to capitalize on lingering uncertainty in the Liverpool camp.
