Brazil vs Senegal
International friendly
Venue: Sigapore National Stadium
Kick-off time: 1pm BST
Two of Liverpool’s front three line up on opposing sides when Brazil take on Senegal this afternoon.
Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane represent their respective nations in Singapore with Liverpool’s campaign on hold until 20 October – when they travel to Manchester United.
Since the summer’s Copa America success, Brazil have seen their 17-game unbeaten run come to an end following defeat to Peru in September.
Senegal meanwhile are still dusting themselves off after their Africa Cup of Nations final heartbreak.
In addition to Firmino and Mane, Ismaila Sarr, Cheikhou Kouyate and Richarlison are the other Premier League names in line to feature.
