HJK vs Liverpool live streaming info - August 1, 2015 club friendly

Liverpool travels to Finland to wrap up their preparation for the 2015-2016 Premier League season. The pressure is on Brendan Rodgers to deliver the goods and before the season gets underway, they have a test against HJK in Helsinki.

The best news for Liverpool ahead of this game is that they will finally count on Emre Can, Roberto Firmino, Coutinho and Christian Benteke, who are back from vacations and ready to serve under Rodgers' orders. The team will gradually have to find someone to fill in for Steven Gerrard and Raheem Sterling's absences.

Liverpool has played four games this pre-season and is still undefeated. It was the Malaysian XI, the squad that broke a perfect winning streak with a 1-1 draw. Now, with a full team at Rodgers' disposal, the team is expected to go for the win. 

This is the last chance for players like Jordon Ibe to prove to their manager that they deserve a spot in the starting XI when it comes to opening their season against Stoke City on the road. Nathaniel Clyne, Joe Gomez, Danny Ings, Divock Origi and James Milner are all new signings with the team. This is a vital game for all of them.

Liverpool fans were not too pleased with their team last season. It is important that this season the team does not take too long trying to find a ay to make things work. Good results are expected quickly.

HJK is the most important team in Finland. They have won 27 league titles, 12 Finnish Cups and 5 Finnish league cups. They will definitely want to put on a good show against Liverpool, as it is not often that a club like them faces a giant like The Reds. 

It is an important occassion for the Finnish side, that usually playes in a smaller venue called Sonera Stadium. This game against Liverpool will be hosted at Helsinki's Olympic stadium. They know that Liverpool is expected to dominate this game, but it they could be lethal in counter-attacks. Don't expect this team to put too much pressure on Liverpool.

What you can expect from Mika Lehkosuo's (team's manager) and his men is to be organized in the back. They must aim to keep Liverpool away from scoring as long as they can. An early goal could really complicate things for them. If they do keep Liverpool scoreless, desperation will reign on the minds of the English side and that's when HLK could take control of the game.
