**The Reds aim to finish their Asia tour on a high note.**
Liverpool wrap up their pre-season campaign in Asia with a clash against J-League champions Yokohama F. Marinos at the Nissan Stadium. After a disappointing 4-2 defeat to AC Milan in Hong Kong, Arne Slot’s side will be eager to respond with a strong performance.
That Milan loss exposed some defensive frailties despite goals from Dominik Szoboszlai and Cody Gakpo. Milan punished Liverpool on the counter, with Noah Okafor bagging a brace and Rafael Leão plus Ruben Loftus-Cheek adding to the damage.
### **Key Team News**
Liverpool will be without several key players for this match. Joe Gomez has returned home with an Achilles issue, while Luis Díaz is on the verge of sealing a big-money move to Bayern Munich. Goalkeeper Alisson Becker has also flown back to Brazil for personal reasons, meaning summer signing Giorgi Mamardashvili is set to start in goal.
Another headline is the debut of new signing **Hugo Ekitike**, who leads the attack alongside Mohamed Salah, Florian Wirtz, and Cody Gakpo in what looks like a near full-strength lineup — potentially a preview of the XI for their Premier League opener against Bournemouth.
Stay tuned for **live score updates, goal alerts, and key moments** from Nissan Stadium as Liverpool look to close their pre-season tour with a win.
