Fans spot Alexis Mac Allister's lock screen on his phone ahead of Liverpool game

Fans have spotted Alexis Mac Allister's lock screen on his phone ahead of Liverpool's Europa League clash against Union Saint-Gilloise.

Liverpool will be looking to make it two wins from two matches in the Europa League as they host Union Saint-Gilloise.

The European fixtures sees a Mac Allister in each line-up, with Alexis' older brother, Kevin, in the ranks for the Belgium outfit.

And ahead of kick-off, they had a catch up in a wholesome moment, with the Reds star revealing his lock screen on his phone.

He had his phone in his hand and showed a picture of himself kissing the World Cup following Argentina's triumph in Qatar last year.

The 24-year-old won't be able to go up against his brother until Jurgen Klopp brings him off the bench.

The Argentinean brothers shared a video call before Thursday's match, where Alexis revealed that he couldn't believe Liverpool were drawn in the same group as Union Saint-Gilloise.

"I remember one of the staff told me that we were in the same group," he said.

"I couldn't believe it. I told him to show me because I thought it wasn't true. For me, it was pretty special."

Kevin, a defender, who only signed for the club in July, added: "The pilot said first LASK, after Toulouse and then made a little pause.

"And I think, 'Well, we can't play against Liverpool.' And then [they said] Liverpool!

"Of course, I played against my brother [before] and it was really special. But for me to play at Anfield - if the coach puts me in the XI, of course - in one of the best stadiums in history, I can listen to You'll Never Walk Alone, all of that will be incredible for me."
