Liverpool continued their preparations for the weekend's friendly meetings with HJK and Swindon Town with a training session at Melwood today.

The Reds have just two fixtures remaining before the new Barclays Premier League campaign gets underway against Stoke City at the Britannia Stadium on August 9.

Saturday sees Brendan Rodgers' squad travel to Helsinki for a clash with HJK at the Olympic Stadium in the Finnish capital.

And on Sunday, Swindon Town are the opponents at the County Ground in the final friendly before 2015-16 begins in earnest.

You can see a selection of pictures from Thursday's training session in our gallery below.
