Steven Gerrard 'to receive guard of honour in final Liverpool home game'

Steven Gerrard will reportedly receive a guard of honour prior to kickoff in his final game at Anfield on Saturday.

The 34-year-old will close the curtain on a 17-year senior career with the Reds on May 24 away to Stoke, but will play for the home crowd for a final time this Saturday.

Before Brendan Rodgers's side take on Crystal Palace in the late kickoff, both sets of players will applaud Gerrard when he enters the Anfield pitch, according to the Daily Star.

Reports have claimed that fans on the Kop will bid their farewell to the club captain by displaying a mural before the game.

Gerrard, who has won three League Cups, two FA Cups and the Champions League, will fly to the United States in July to play for MLS side Los Angeles Galaxy on an 18-month deal.
