Borussia Dortmund take on former boss Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool in their second game of the ICC pre-season tournament.

Last Time Out
Blackburn Rovers 0-2 Liverpool

Liverpool continued their pre-season preparation with a routine win over newly promoted Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park on Thursday. 

Both sides made wholesale changes for the second half as Klopp blended youth with experience either side of the break. James Milner missed a first-half penalty for the Reds as the Premier League side struggled to dominate.

In the second period, Liverpool were much more fluid and gradually controlled the game. The impressive Naby Keita gave his side much needed creativity and spark, linking up frequently with Daniel Sturridge, providing him with Liverpool’s second of the game. 

Sturridge was involved in his sides’ opener, too, playing in Lazar Markovic who marked his return to the fold with a goal shortly after half-time. 

Manchester City 0-1 Borussia Dortmund

There was a debut for Riyad Mahrez and an appearance for Joe Hart as Manchester City lost 1-0 in their ICC opener to Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund.

The Black and Yellows fielded a stronger XI and made their strength count against City’s youngsters when Mario Gotze fired them ahead from the spot after 28 minutes – Oleksandr Zinchenko had fouled Christian Pulisic.

Liverpool Lineup
The unpredictability of a pre-season friendly makes predicting a line-up virtually impossible. New signing Alisson Becker is unlikely to feature in the USA, while Roberto Firmino, Dejan Lovren, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson will link back up with the squad after the tour.

Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Marko Grujic have returned to training and have travelled, though this first fixture may come too early for their involvement. 

Borussia Dortmund Lineup
Favre and Dortmund also have a large squad, so rotation is likely. Christian Pulisic will return to his native USA, so will hope to play in front of his home fans.

After getting 45 minutes under his belt last time out, Jadon Sancho will also hope to feature, as will the experienced duo of Andre Schurrle and Mario Gotze.
