Liverpool’s pre-season schedule is now taking shape, with Andoni Iraola’s side set to return to training on July 14 before heading out on their highly anticipated USA tour later this month.

The Reds will open their Stateside trip against Sunderland at GEODIS Park in Nashville on Saturday July 25 (11pm GMT/6pm local), then face Wrexham at Yankee Stadium in New York on Tuesday July 29 (12.30am GMT, early hours of July 30).

The tour wraps up in Chicago, where Liverpool will meet Leeds United at Soldier Field on Sunday August 2, with kick-off set for 9pm GMT (4pm local time).

Meanwhile, the Premier League has confirmed three new fixture dates for Liverpool in the opening weeks of the season.

The Premier League have now officially confirmed three fixture changes for Liverpool in August and September, affecting games against Nottingham Forest, Ipswich Town and AFC Bournemouth.

The Nottingham Forest home match, originally scheduled for Saturday August 29 at 3pm, has been moved earlier to a dreaded 12:30pm kick-off broadcast on TNT Sports.

Ipswich Town away, which was initially set for Saturday 5 September at 3pm, instead will be played on Friday 4 September at 8pm broadcast on Sky Sports

Meanwhile, Andoni Iraola’s first trip back to Bournemouth as Liverpool manager was originally slated for Saturday 19 September but will now fall on Sunday September 20 at 2pm.

The coming Premier League season will feature three newly promoted sides – Coventry City, Ipswich Town, and Hull City – all hoping for a strong start after stepping up from the Championship.

The opening round is scheduled for Saturday, August 22, a slightly later start than the previous campaign due to scheduling adjustments and recovery time after the World Cup.

The season will conclude on Sunday, May 30, 2027, with all final-day fixtures kicking off simultaneously.

In total, the 2026–27 season will consist of 33 weekend match rounds and five midweek rounds of fixtures, shaping what is expected to be another tightly contested campaign at both ends of the table.
