Liverpool tops both the Premier League and Champions League tables!
In 20 appearances, Salah has tallied 13 goals and 11 assists, becoming the first player in Europe’s top five leagues to achieve double digits in both categories.
Following the conclusion of the 13th Premier League round, Salah’s league stats now stand at 11 goals and 7 assists, trailing only Erling Haaland (12 goals) and Bukayo Saka (10 assists).
Salah has recorded 11 goals and 7 assists this season!
With Manchester City struggling and Haaland’s scoring rate declining, Salah has a strong chance to compete for the Premier League Golden Boot, potentially ending Haaland’s two-year dominance.
Notably, Salah ranks second in both goals and assists this season, but his all-around consistency and brilliance solidify him as a top candidate for Premier League Player of the Season.
Additionally, Salah’s performance in this match brought his Premier League career tally of games with both a goal and an assist to 36, tying Wayne Rooney for the all-time record.
A similar performance in his next game would make Salah the outright leader in this category.
This was his 21st appearance against Manchester City for Liverpool, during which he has netted 12 goals, making him the player with the most goals against Guardiola-managed teams.

In total, Salah has faced Premier League “Big Six” teams 74 times in his career, amassing 45 goals and 19 assists, further underscoring his dominance in high-stakes matches.
Salah Continues to Shine as Liverpool’s Title Charge Gains Momentum
With yet another outstanding performance, Mohamed Salah proved once again why he remains Liverpool’s most decisive player. His goal and assist in the 2-0 victory over Manchester City not only extended his incredible scoring streak but also reinforced his status as one of the Premier League’s most influential attackers.
As Liverpool strengthens its grip on the top spot, Salah’s consistency and all-around contributions make him a leading contender for both the Golden Boot and the Player of the Season award. If he maintains this form, he could rewrite more records and play a pivotal role in Liverpool’s title ambitions.
