Who's playing: The Reds are looking for their third pre-season victory when they face the Championship side on Sunday. The Merseyside outfit registered wins against Tranmere Rovers and Fleetwood Town in their first two pre-season fixtures. But the match against Wigan will not be an easy one considering the fact that the Latics have some experience playing in the Premier League. They lost to Manchester United 2-0 on Saturday and the last thing they would want to do is to lose against yet another Premier League side.
What time: Sunday 17, 2016 at 7:00 PT, 10:00 EDT, 14:00 UTC, 15:00 BST, 16:00 CEST

Philippe Coutinho is expected to start after missing the win over Fleetwood on Wednesday. However, Mamadou Sakho and Joe Gomez could be sidelined due to injury. Joel Matip and Dejan Lovren could start in their place at the centre-back. New signing Sadio Mane is also expected to start after impressing on his debut. Cameron Brannagan was a major transfer target for Wigan before the club turned down their one-million-pound bid, and he could start on Sunday afternoon against his suitors.
