Liverpool team news confirmed for Bradford City match with different outfield line up in each half

Dejan Lovren makes his Liverpool return in pre-season as Rhian Brewster is given another chance to impress Jurgen Klopp from the start at Bradford City.

The duo are both named in the first-half team for the Reds' latest pre-season friendly at the League Two on Sunday afternoon (kick-off 3pm).

The inclusion of Lovren is the only change from the team that started at Tranmere Rovers on Thursday, with Joe Gomez moving into the second-half team and George Johnston dropping to the bench.

Brewster caught the eye at Prenton Park by scoring twice in an impressive 6-0 victory at Prenton Park.

The only other change sees 19-year-old Canadian forward Liam Millar included in the second-half team in place of the injured Paul Glatzel.

Andy Robertson, Jordan Henderson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Gini Wijnaldum and Virgil van Dijk all returned to Melwood on Saturday but aren't yet ready for consideration.

LIVERPOOL (first half): Mignolet, Clyne, Phillips, Lovren, Larouci, Milner, Lallana, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Wilson, Kent, Brewster.

LIVERPOOL (second half): Mignolet, Hoever, Matip, Gomez, Lewis, Fabinho, Woodburn, Jones, Duncan, Origi, Millar. Subs: Atherton, Johnston.
