Egypt v Senegal live stream and teams: Salah and Mane meet in World Cup clash

The sides will lock horns in a two-legged play-off for a place in Qatar this winter and the Liverpool duo will both be eager to make it.

Salah's Pharoahs will be desperate not only to make the World Cup, but also to earn revenge over the Lions of Teranga after they were beaten on penalties in the Africa Cup of Nations final.

Both sides breezed through the groups stages of the CAF World Cup qualification, remaining unbeaten throughout.

Egypt topped Group F, seven points clear of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's Gabon, while Senegal dominated Group H, dropping just two points.
