Liverpool to play Torino at Anfield for first home pre-season friendly in four years
Friday 15 June 2018 12:02, UK
Liverpool will play their first pre-season friendly at Anfield in four years when they take on Italian side Torino on August 7.
Jurgen Klopp's team will host the Serie A club as part of their final preparations for the 2018/19 campaign, with the Premier League season kicking off just four days later against West Ham at home.
It will be the first time in history Liverpool have taken on Torino - who finished 9th in the Italian top flight last term.
The last time Liverpool played a pre-season friendly on home turf was back in 2014, when they beat Borussia Dortmund 4-0, who were then managed by current boss Klopp.
The Reds will also take part in the International Champions Cup in the United States as part of their pre-season. They will face Dortmund again, as well as English rivals Manchester City and Manchester United.
Before they welcome Torino, they face another Italian side - Napoli - in Dublin on August 4.
