Last updated : 07 June 2008 By Al Campbell
The Reds will face Chester at the Deva Stadium on July 12th. The League Two side are hopeful Rafael Benitez will send a strong squad for the game.

"Liverpool don't have any other fixtures on that day so we're hoping for a fair turnout from their first team," said City boss Simon Davies.

"It's going to be a great day for the fans - and a great challenge for the players as well.

"We've spoken to a lot of big clubs about friendlies and credit to Liverpool for taking us up on the offer."
