Preview

Liverpool put in a fine performance to make their way through to the Asia Trophy final as they beat Crystal Palace 2-0 on Wednesday.

New signing Dominic Solanke netted the first goal before Divock Origi found the net, while Mohamed Salah looked impressive in his 50-minute showing.

The Foxes were made to work much harder to book their spot in the final, as they were forced to penalties against West Bromwich Albion after a 1-1 draw—Riyad Mahrez cancelled out Jay Rodriguez's opener.

Marc Albrighton netted the winner in the shootout to see the Foxes to a 7-6 victory after Sam Field missed.

Leicester needed a brilliant end to the season to escape the relegation battle last term just a year on from winning the Premier League title.

Manager Craig Shakespeare will be eager that his side compete at the top end of the table again in 2017-18, and a victory over Liverpool in Hong Kong would be a statement of intent.

The Reds, though, have more quality in their ranks and are favourites to prevail on Saturday.

Salah, a £34 million signing from AS Roma in June, could play a key role in Liverpool's ambitions next term, and his electric pace is likely to cause Leicester all kinds of problems.

Even manager Jurgen Klopp was impressed with the Egyptian's speed after the Palace clash, per Anfield HQ:

It was the Anfield outfit's fluid attacking unit that saw them earmarked as potential title challengers last term before they faded in the second half of the season.

Klopp will want to see his intricate forward unit improve and evolve in 2017-18, and he will be looking for his front men to win Liverpool the 2017 Premier League Asia Trophy on Saturday.
