Liverpool's preparations for the new Premier League season will intensify later this week when Jurgen Klopp and his squad jet off to Singapore for the latest chapter of their summer rehearsals.
After spending 10 days in the Black Forest region of Germany, Liverpool returned to Merseyside on Monday evening following a schedule of three sessions per day which was bookended with outings against Bundesliga 2 outfits Karlsruher SC and Greuther Furth. This week's jaunt to the Far East, however, will see the level of opposition increase as Klopp's side come up against Leicester City and Bayern Munich.
Both ties will be significant in their own right, with the Liverpool boss already admitting the fixture against the recently-relegated Foxes will see his plan switch gear - with more limited changes after using over 25 players in both of the previous games this month.
It means the team that takes to the field at the Singapore National Stadium on Sunday morning will reveal a significant amount about Klopp's thinking ahead of the Premier League opener at Stamford Bridge.

The Hungarian midfielder, who joined in a £60m deal from RB Leipzig earlier this month, will be available for Wednesday's friendly against Bayern Munich however, according to his manager.
