Team News: Mohamed Salah on bench for Liverpool against Arsenal, Diogo Jota starts

Mohamed Salah has been named on the bench for Liverpool's Premier League clash with Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

The attacker picked up a foot injury in the weekend's victory over Brighton & Hove Albion, although Jurgen Klopp revealed that the issue was not serious in his pre-match press conference.

Salah has made the trip to the Emirates but is only considered for a spot on the bench, as Diogo Jota joins Luis Diaz and Sadio Mane in the frontline.

Jota's re-introduction is one of two changes on the visitors' end, with Thiago Alcantara displacing Naby Keita to start alongside Fabinho and Jordan Henderson in midfield.

Ibrahima Konate has also shaken off a knock to make the squad, but Klopp has stuck with Joel Matip alongside Virgil van Dijk in an unchanged Liverpool rearguard.

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

Substitutes: Kelleher, Konate, Keita, Firmino, Salah, Gomez, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Jones, Minamino
