Liverpool vs Man City: Confirmed Lineups, Preview – Ilkay Gundogan Misses International Champions Cup Clash, Mo Salah Makes The Squad

Liverpool take on Manchester City on Thursday 26 July at the MetLife Stadium, New Jersey, USA in their opening game in the International Champions Cup.

Youngster of part Turkish heritage Rhian Brewster will not feature for the Reds due to injury.

City midfielder of Turkish origin Ilkay Gundogan will also miss the game due to still being on holiday after being given an extended break following the World Cup.

City lifted the Premier League title last season with the Reds just behind them.

Looking at the two squads what is remarkable is how many star names Liverpool have available.

Joel Matip has flown home after picking up a quad injury and the likes of Roberto Firmino, Jordan Henderson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Xherdan Shaqiri and Alisson are unavailable after World Cup duty.

However, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane have both returned in time to make the bench.

Additionally summer arrival Fabinho will start but Naby Keita is out injured with a sore neck.

Adam Lallana has recovered from injury and starts tonight.

The defence will be comprised of Virgin van Dijk, Clyne, Gomes and Robertson.

Daniel Sturridge starts upfront with 17-year-old Curtis Jones on the wing.

Pep Guardiola meanwhile is missing several key players.

Raheem Sterling, John Stones, Fernandinho, Gabriel Jesus, Sergio Aguero, David Silva, Vincent Kompany and Kevin De Bruyne are all out.

A name familiar to Turkish football followers will be Jason Denayer who spent last season on loan at Galatasaray, he starts tonight.

Leroy Sane has been named on the bench while summer signing Mahrez starts.
