Mohamed Salah will be back in the Liverpool squad for Thursday’s game with Leicester as he looks to extend his lead in the race for the Premier League Golden Boot.
A tally of 16 goals has the Egyptian star well clear of the chasing pack despite taking a month off for the Africa Cup of Nations.
Liverpool teammate Diogo Jota is his nearest rival with ten strikes, before Jamie Vardy’s nine ahead of his visit to Anfield.

Wednesday’s games will give Son the chance to get back on the scoreboard with Southampton the visitors to Tottenham, after Ronaldo’s goalless streak extended to five games in Manchester United’s 1-1 draw at Burnley.
