Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Liverpool could line up for Wednesday's Premier League clash with Arsenal at the Emirates.

Liverpool have been handed a concern with Mohamed Salah ahead of Wednesday's Premier League clash with Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

The 20-goal attacker went down with a foot injury in the 2-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday lunchtime, and while Klopp offered a positive update at his press conference, the ex-Chelsea man may not be risked from the start here.

Jurgen Klopp will hope to recover Ibrahima Konate from a knock in time for Wednesday's game, while Kostas Tsimikas and James Milner are both ill, but the Reds are otherwise in good shape for the journey to North London.

Even if Konate is fit to take part, February's Premier League Player of the Month Joel Matip produced another classy showing in the win over Brighton and should join Virgil van Dijk in an unchanged back four.

Jordan Henderson and Fabinho should not be dropped for a game of this magnitude either, and Thiago Alcantara was named on the bench at the Amex - likely with this game in mind - and could now displace Naby Keita.

Luis Diaz did not suffer any lasting damage from Robert Sanchez's high tackle - which somehow went unpunished - in the Brighton win and will fancy his chances against Cedric Soares here.

Diogo Jota - Liverpool's two-goal hero from the EFL Cup semi-finals against Arsenal - is primed to take Salah's spot in the attack, while Sadio Mane will hope to fend off competition from fit-again Roberto Firmino to lead the line.

Liverpool possible starting lineup: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Fabinho, Thiago; Jota, Mane, Diaz
