Liverpool players to watch
There are three Liverpool players that we should keep an eye on and who have a very important role in the team. The first is Mohamed Salah (#11), he was the team's top scorer in the last tournament with 23 goals in 35 games played and also the team's top assister with 13 assists. Another player is Trent Alexander-Arnold (#66), he plays in the defensive position and at 23 years old he was the team's second-highest assister with 12 assists. And finally, we should keep an eye on Portuguese striker Diogo Jota (#20), he was the team's fifth highest assister last season with 4 assists and also the second highest scorer with 15 goals.
Liverpool
The English team is preparing for the Premier League which will start next month. Their pre-season started a few days ago and they scheduled 5 friendly games to prepare for the tournament. His preparation matches are against Manchester United, Crystal Palace, RB Leipzig, Red Bull Salzburg and Racing de Strasbourg. Their last game was against Crystal Palace on July 15, 2022, Liverpool won the game 2-0 at the National Stadium. His first game of the 2022-2023 season will be on August 6, 2022 against Fulham. In the 2021-2022 Premier League tournament they were in second position with 28 wins, 8 draws and 2 losses, their preparation games will help them have a good 2022-2023 season. They arrive as favorites to win this game and stay with the victory because of the incredible team they have and the good time they are going through.
RB Leipzig players to watch
The next three players are seen as key to Leipzig's attacking attack and any of them are likely to score in the game against Liverpool. French forward Christopher Nkunku (#18), was the team's top scorer in the 2021-2022 season with 20 goals and was the team's top assister with 13 assists in 38 games. He will be very important for the friendly match because of his experience and his control of the ball on the pitch. Another player is André Silva (#19), he plays in the forward position and is the team's second highest scorer with 11 goals in 31 games played. Finally, midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai (#17) who is a very important player for creating dangerous plays. He is the third highest scorer on the team (6 goals) and the second highest assister (8 assists) so we should follow him in the game.
