StatsMohamed Salah eyeing record-equalling goal on landmark appearance
Mohamed Salah is set to make his 200th Premier League appearance for Liverpool against Wolverhampton Wanderers this afternoon.
Should the forward find the back of the net, he would also equal a club record on his landmark outing for the Reds.
Salah would match Gordon Hodgson's 126 strikes, which is the most scored by any player in Anfield history in that amount of league games.
He would also become Liverpool's leading scorer away from home in the Premier League era. He is currently on 55, alongside Michael Owen.
