Liverpool wing wizard Mohamed Salah could hit no fewer than three new milestones in Monday’s Premier League battle with Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium.
The Egypt international’s powers have waned towards the end of the season, only netting one goal and providing one assist in his last seven matches, but a trio of landmarks could await him on Monday.
If he plays, Salah will bring up 300 Premier League appearances, and if he scores, he will set a new record for the most away goals in a single campaign in the competition; his current total of 16 is tied with Harry Kane and Kevin Phillips.
One strike or assist would also see Salah equal the record for the most goal contributions in one Premier League season, and the 32-year-old should work in tandem with Luis Diaz and Cody Gakpo up front once again.
Dominik Szoboszlai may be deemed in need of a break, though, so it would not be a surprise to see Curtis Jones operate in an advanced midfield position, allowing Alexis Mac Allister to come back into the engine room.
Arne Slot‘s promises of rotation could lead to Wataru Endo coming in for Ryan Gravenberch, while Kostas Tsimikas and Jarell Quansah are prime candidates to come into the backline too.
However, Conor Bradley will surely hold his spot over the departing Trent Alexander-Arnold, whose introduction against Arsenal triggered boos from sections of the Anfield crowd.
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Alisson; Bradley, Quansah, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Endo, Mac Allister; Salah, Jones, Gakpo; Diaz
