With the game falling on International Women’s Day, we also hear from Belinda Johnson, who discusses the incredible community of women around Penny Lane FC and her own journey following the Reds.
There is a round-up of the latest match action, a quiz to test your knowledge of attacker and cover star Diogo Jota, plus some teasers for younger supporters in Mighty Red’s puzzle page.
We also highlight an item of memorabilia presented to Joe Fagan following the 1976 FA Charity Shield between Liverpool and Southampton and put the spotlight on the career of ex-Reds forward Kevin Lewis, who enjoyed a special day against Saints back in 1962.
