With the book closed on one continental season, the next will be upon us sooner than expected, as Champions League winners Liverpool and Europa League holders Chelsea prepare to kick-off the latest campaign in style in the UEFA Super Cup.
The two Premier League sides will ensure an all-English affair for the curtain-raising clash as Jurgen Klopp's side look to add a second piece of silverware to the trophy cabinet this year, while the Blues will give their new manager a baptism of fire.
Both sides will travel out east to Turkey only days after they begin their new domestic campaigns too, as they look to begin 2019-20 on the strongest foot possible.
