The head of Bayern Munich appoints the player that he is sure to be able to stop Mohamed Salah

Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge praised Mohamed Salah in Liverpool ahead of the Champions League clash next week, but is confident that a player can keep him quiet.

The Bundesliga giants will travel to Anfield next week to face the Premier League title hopes, which will allow Jurgen Klopp to face rivals from his past with Borussia Dortmund.

Liverpool will face a tough test to defeat the Bavarian team and will turn to Salah, who has scored 20 goals in all competitions this season, to build on a match that remains their biggest test of the season.

However, Rummenigge thinks that the Egyptian international may face difficulties when it will visit the field next week when the double winner of the Golden Ball has named David Alaba as a capable rival for Salah at course of the case to two.

"He's a great player on the right side, but we have David Alaba, an extremely fast left-back," he told SportBild.

"We have complete confidence in David who is one of the best advocates in the world."

Rummenigge is aware that Bayern will face a difficult challenge against a Liverpool team that has lost only once to Anfield in all competitions this season and believes that Klopp's team could collapse on the road during the return match.

"A draw would be great, the important thing is to score and not to think about the defense.

"It could be the cornerstone of the quarterfinals. Liverpool has shown weaknesses far from home. "
