Once again Liverpool FC will be playing the star game of the day, this time they will be at home to Premier League leaders Manchester City at the legendary Anfield stadium, who with a win and a combination of results from the Arsenal-Leeds United match, could be the new leader of the league just a few weeks before the break for the start of the 22nd FIFA World Cup.

For such a match the Red's must go out with the best they have on the pitch, which will be a headache for coach Jürgen Klopp, who will have to choose his centre-forward from among superstars. Mohamed Salah, Darwin Nunez and Roberto Firmino all found the net again in a 7-1 humbling of Rangers FC in the 22/23 Champions League in Glasgow, Scotland.

For the fans, Mo Salah should be the undisputed starter against Manchester City. The Egyptian's incredible performance against the Light Blues, calmed the critics and silenced many who pointed to his poor start to the season. Three goals in the space of five minutes (76', 80' & 81') set the nets alight, making Salah a global trend. "The Pharaoh, he's back," it read.

On the other hand Bobby Firmino is also living a great moment. The Brazilian netted his second goal of the season, his third brace of the season, which opened the door for the Reds' comeback at Ibrox Stadium. The former TSG 1899 Hoffenheim man has now scored eight goals for Liverpool FC in the Premier League and UEFA Champions League so far this season.

<strong>Salah or Núñez, Klopp&#39;s doubt</strong>

Another player raising his hand in the Pool's attack is Uruguay's Darwin Núñez, who also notched his second goal of the season.  The 23-year-old striker was on fire when he scored the previous week in a 1-1 draw against Arsenal. Against Rangers, Nunez scored the second of Liverpool's six second-half goals.
