Players Are Out
Both sides are out in the heat in Austria as Liverpool prepare to get their pre-season schedule underway.
Captain And Notable Omissions
Trent Alexander-Arnold will captain 'Team One' in Austria whilst there is no place for Curtis Jones, Ben Woodburn, Caoimhín Kelleher or Mateusz Musialowski in either side.
Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez have both also been left out of the squads.
Chance To Impress
The first of tonight's two matches sees an opportunity for a host of youngsters as well as both Divock Origi and Takumi Minamino to impress.
Both forwards face uncertain futures at Anfield and could be subject to interest from elsewhere.
Klopp will no doubt be monitoring closely over the next few weeks to decide whether there is a part in his plans.
On TAA
"The rehab team did brilliantly with Trent in the summer break, so he came here (in Austria) and was in a pretty good shape for our first game in a while."
On Konate
''He has to adapt and learn as there's a lot of things we do differently to RB Leipzig.''
Klopp Has Spoken
''It's hard to see in 30 minutes, just go with all you have. First side is quite young, the second maybe more experience.''
Subs For Both Games
On the bench for Liverpool for both matches will be: Harvey Davies, Harry Wilson, Neco Williams, Billy Koumetio
Reaction
A true mix and match team named by Jurgen Klopp which sees Ben Davies make a Liverpool debut and Joel Matip make a welcome return to action.
Confirmed Team News
Liverpool XI: Karius, Alexander-Arnold, Davies, Matip, Beck, Clarkson, Morton, Cain, Gordon, Origi, Minamino
What's To Come
That's all for now but we will be back shortly before kick off with more pre-match build up, analysis and team news as Liverpool kickstart their summer.
Team News Continued
As returning stars such as Virgil van Dijk, Joel Matip, Joe Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold continue to build back to full fitness, there could well be limited participation from that quartet.
Liverpool new boy Ibrahima Konate is expected to feature in one of the clashes as the Frenchman gears up towards a full debut.
Team News
Whilst it's almost impossible to tell who Jurgen Klopp may pick with back to back friendlies on the same evening, there are some guarantees.
Many of the players who featured heavily for their nations are yet to join up with the squad, meaning the likes of Thiago, Jordan Henderson and Diogo Jota certainly won't play any part.
