Mohamed Salah shows he is fighting fit as Liverpool train ahead of Champions League second-leg clash against Manchester City. Liverpool's Mohamed Salah and his team-mates trained on Monday evening ahead of their Champions League second-leg clash against Manchester City on Tuesday night. Mo Salah, who scored in the Reds' 3-0 win over City in the first leg of the quarter-final tie last week, missed Saturday's Merseyside derby against Everton due to a groin injury. The Egyptian picked up the injury in the victory over City and his fitness was being put to the test at the Melwood training base.

Salah has been Liverpool's key man this season, scoring 38 goals in all competitions this season.

Of the Egyptian's chances of recovering in time to face City, in his pre-match press conference Klopp said: 'Not sure 100 per cent. We train at 5pm. It is rather yes than no but we have to see. We will train and then make a decision.' 

Jordan Henderson will miss the clash at the Etihad after picking up his third yellow of the competition in last week's victory at Anfield.

Centre back Virgil van Dijk also insisted Liverpool must play to win at the Etihad Stadium.

'It is pretty clear defending a 3-0 lead is going to be strange but we need to come here with the mindset it is still 0-0, we want to win,' he said.

'We know we are capable of scoring goals and can defend well as a team. We need to keep a mindset of winning the game, rather than defending a lead.

'They have so much quality, they are going to win the league, but we know their strengths and weaknesses. We need to be 100 per cent and more to win the game.'
