Liverpool Take On Sunderland in Thrilling Friendly: Live Score and Match Stats

Liverpool's preseason tour kicks off, along with the Andoni Iraola era, on American soil as the Reds face Sunderland in a friendly this Saturday.

Marking the club's first outing since parting ways with Arne Slot at the end of May, Liverpool will look to get to grips with Iraola's high-intensity approach in the sweltering heat of Nashville, taking on a Sunderland side that experienced a remarkably contrasting 2025–26 season.

While Liverpool struggled with the rise of direct football, long throws, and set-piece tactics, Sunderland flourished within the new Premier League environment. The Black Cats surged to a seventh-place finish in a remarkable debut season back in the top flight after an eight-year absence. Régis Le Bris's squad launched their preseason preparations with an emphatic 5–1 victory over York City.
