Torino will face Liverpool in a pre-season friendly in Austria this summer, according to Il Corriere di Torino.

The two sides last met in a friendly at Anfield, as part of a warm up match for the 2018-19 campaign.

On that occasion Torino, then managed by Walter Mazzarri, were beaten 3-1 with Andrea Belotti scoring the Granata’s only goal.

Torino are 10th in Serie A with two matches remaining, though unlikely to catch ninth-place Verona, who are five points ahead.

Ivan Juric’s side have shown they are up to the challenge against the league’s biggest sides, having recently claimed draws against title challengers Milan and Inter as well as in the derby at Juventus.

Liverpool have reached the Champions League final this campaign, beating two Italian sides along the way.

In the group phase, they beat Milan home and away, despite briefly trailing at Anfield, while they eliminated Inter in the round of 16 with a 2-0 win at the Giuseppe Meazza and 1-0 defeat in Liverpool.
