Liverpool and Arsenal are set to lock horns in the Premier League tonight in a highly-anticipated clash.

Arsenal have won five consecutive top-flight games, while Liverpool are on an eight-game winning run in the competition.

In addition, Manchester City’s draw at Crystal Palace has brought the Reds right back into immediate title contention.

If Liverpool win, they’ll be just one point behind Pep Guardiola’s side.

However, Arsenal won’t make it easy for them. The Gunners are desperate for a top-four finish and a long-awaited return to the Champions League.

Prior to the game, there was a doubt over one of Liverpool’s star players.

At the weekend, Mohamed Salah had to come off against Brighton with a foot problem.

However, footage has emerged today which suggests the Egypt international is fine and ready to go.

The Liverpool squad was filmed walking around north London, and Salah was spotted in the footage.

This is fantastic news for the Liverpool team and fans, suggesting there’s no problem with the 29-year-old.

Salah has enjoyed a sensational season, registering 28 goals and 10 assists from 35 games.

Admittedly, he hasn’t been at his stratospheric best in recent weeks, perhaps due to fatigue following the Africa Cup of Nations.

Nonetheless, Salah’s “average” is still of an incredibly high level, and he certainly has what it takes to trouble Arsenal.

In addition, he enjoys playing against the Gunners, and boasts a great record against them.

Salah has a staggering eight goals and four assists from just 10 Premier League games against Arsenal over the course of his career.
