Both sides are competing in the Singapore Festival of Football, with this clash forming part of the mini-tournament. Jurgen Klopp's team are also set to face Bayern Munich.
The Reds secured a win and a draw from their two friendly games as part of a training camp in Germany this month, with Leicester winning a friendly in Thailand against local side Port.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch.
Liverpool continued its pre-season preparations out in Singapore as it took on recently relegated Leicester City, and showed more exciting signs ahead of the 2023/24 campaign.
A rampant first half performance saw the Reds take a 3-0 lead into the break, with Darwin Núñez and Diogo Jota once again on the scoresheet, while Bobby Clark also got in on the act.
Liverpool didn't let up in the second half, with Ben Doak on hand to nod home at the back post as the Reds scored four for the third game running.
The line-up to take on Jurgen Klopp's Reds could provide clues to the side that Maresca will choose to face the Sky Blues next Sunday, and there are a few contentious positions. City need to decide who will play at centre-back with Conor Coady injured, who will play on the wings with Maresca short on senior options, and who will play up front, with Jamie Vardy recently struggling with a minor issue. The match served as crucial preparation for Liverpool, as they have two weeks remaining before their Premier League season opener against Chelsea. Manager Jurgen Klopp expressed contentment with his side's performance, stating, "We had a lot of good moments but we can do better."
Leicester City finished in 18th place in the Premier League standings and have been relegated to the EFL Championship. The Foxes edged Northampton Town to a 1-0 victory in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
Liverpool, on the other hand, secured a fifth-place finish in the league table and have improved after a mid-season slump last year. The Merseyside outfit played out a 4-4 draw against Greuther Furth last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
