English giants Liverpool will play fellow Premier League side Crystal Palace for the inaugural Standard Chartered Singapore Trophy in a preseason clash on July 15 at the National Stadium.

Liverpool, who have already won this season’s League Cup and are fighting for silverware on another three fronts, will also stage an open training session at the National Stadium on July 14.

“Preseason is a vital time of year for our players, it’s hugely important preparation for the season ahead and it’s also a perfect opportunity to meet with our fans around the world,” said Ben Latty, the commercial director of Liverpool, who are sponsored by Standard Chartered.

“We can’t wait to get back to Singapore once again – we’ve received a tremendous welcome there in the past, and are excited to be taking part in the Standard Chartered Singapore Trophy 2022.
