Liverpool vs Leeds: How to Watch the Preseason Friendly Live

Liverpool and Leeds meet again at Soldier Field in Chicago, revisiting last season's thrilling Premier League encounters. The teams previously drew 3-3 in December after a last-minute equalizer by Leeds' Ao Tanaka, followed by a 0-0 draw in January.

This preseason game also serves as an early challenge for Andoni Iraola in his first season managing Liverpool. The squad combines seasoned players with promising youth on their U.S. tour, featuring key names like Dominik Szoboszlai, Federico Chiesa, and Cody Gakpo.

Leeds’ Lineup and Strategy

Under Daniel Farke, now in his fourth year as Leeds coach, the team blends experience with new talent. Dominic Calvert-Lewin leads the attack, with Ethan Ampadu controlling midfield. Speedsters Wilfried Gnonto and Daniel James add quickness to Leeds’ offense.

Both teams are still finalizing their rosters ahead of the upcoming season, making this match a chance to build momentum before the league restarts in August.
