Liverpool defenders Kolo Toure, Mamadou Sakho available for Arsenal showdown

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that Kolo Toure and Mamadou Sakho are fit for Wednesday's Premier League clash against Arsenal at Anfield.

The Reds have been hit with an injury crisis as 11 players have been on the treatment table over the last week.

The defence has particularly suffered with problems as Martin Skrtel, Dejan Lovren, Sakho and Toure have all been carrying injuries.

However, ahead of this week's match against Arsenal, Klopp has received a boost as both Toure and Sakho are free to play.

"The situation better now," Klopp said in Monday's press conference. "Kolo will be available. Mama wants to be available. Hopefully we can use him."

Meanwhile, Philippe Coutinho, Jordon Ibe, Jordan Henderson, Divock Origi and Daniel Sturridge remain out of action.
