Mohamed Salah Eyes 3 New Milestones Against Southampton
Mohamed Salah will try to continue his great performance this season when Liverpool plays against Southampton in the Premier League on Sunday. The Egyptian player has scored 10 goals and made 10 assists in only 17 games in all competitions so far.
If Salah scores or assists at least once in the match, he will reach an amazing milestone, matching the record of former Manchester United star Wayne Rooney, who scored or assisted in 36 matches during one season. Salah has already done this 35 times, and this Sunday's game could be the 36th time.
Salah also has the chance to match or surpass another Liverpool star, Robbie Fowler, who set a record for the most goals scored in the Premier League versus Southampton. In 11 outings versus the Saints, Salah has scored seven goals and Fowler has scored eight.
The Egyptian King is also just two goals away from reaching the incredible feat of 100 goals for Liverpool away from home across all competitions.
Mo Salah has scored eight goals, putting him in second place for goals in the Premier League. He is four goals behind Haaland from Manchester City. Liverpool has 28 points, which is five points more than the current champions, Manchester City, who recently lost to Tottenham.
