Liverpool To Face Valencia

Liverpool will host Spanish side Valencia for a pre-season friendly on August 6th.

In recent years Liverpool has returned to their tradition of hosting a major European side for a home friendly, although last year they did not due to Europa League qualifiers.

The year before they hosted Atletico Madrid and in 2008 it was Lazio.

Liverpool fans will be hoping a current Valencia player, winger Juan Mata, will be appearing in the game for the home side rather than the opposition. The two clubs are believed to be in talks over the Under 21 international.
