Mohamed Salah continues to get better with age, the Egyptian has already fired in 6 Premier League goals in 9 games this term, as well as 2 more across the Champions League and EFL Cup.

Salah’s current scoring rate is 0.69 goals per 90 in the Premier League, if he continues at this rate, it should see him notch a couple of goals over his next three topflight games.

With two home matches and an away trip to bottom of the table Southampton, who are 19th on xGA (19.6), Salah will see this as a chance to get a few goals on the board, against sides he’s been prolific against in recent seasons.

The winger has played a combined 35 Premier League matches against Brighton, Aston Villa and Southampton, and has struck an mightily impressive 22 goals across these matches. Last season, Salah scored three goals over two league games against Brighton and netted once against Villa.

In addition, the Reds have received a joint league-high two penalties already this season and with Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez in their ranks, there’s every chance Salah could benefit from a spot kick or two in the coming weeks. Brighton and Aston Villa have also conceded a joint league-high two spot kicks each this term.

While Salah is known for his finishing above all else, he’s been prolific in terms of creating goals too. The Egyptian sits in joint-second for the most league assists this term with Cole Palmer, only behind Bukayo Saka.

Salah has provided 5 assists in 9 Premier League matches so far this term, he has also notched 2 assists in 3 Champions League outings.

As mentioned, Salah’s goal record against the teams in this bet is excellent, as is his assist record. In 35 Premier League matches against Brighton, Aston Villa and Southampton, Salah has provided 13 assists - in total, the Egyptian has notched a combined 35 goals and assists in 35 matches against the trio of teams in question.

Salah leads Liverpool’s xA numbers so far this term and he has formed a strong partnership with Darwin Nunez of late. Salah linked up with the striker to provide an assist in Liverpool’s last Champions League match, while Nunez returned the favour in the Reds’ 2-2 draw against Arsenal.

Nunez looks certain to start up top while Jota battles with injury, which should see the duo combine for a few goals in November.

Salah has been fouled at least once in all but one of Liverpool’s 9 Premier League matches this term, including three times against Bournemouth and twice against Man United and Brentford.

The winger is currently being fouled at a rate of 1.38 times per 90. With Liverpool’s injury troubles up top in Diogo Jota and Federico Chiesa, Salah is likely to continue to play almost every minute for the Reds in November, if he keeps this average up, he’s projected to draw 4 fouls over the next three topflight matches, we only need him to collect one more to hit this line of our bet - which is more than doable.

Salah’s potential direct opponents have also been regular foulers this term, Brighton's Pervis Estupinan is likely to come in for Ferdi Kadioglu against the Reds at the weekend, the left-back has been in and out of the team this season but fouled at a rate of 1.59 times per 90 in the Premier League last term. There’s every chance he’ll be a little rusty and need to sin a couple of times to combat Salah’s threat.

Likewise, Aston Villa’s Lucas Digne has sinned 1.60 times per 90 this season, and has fouled 2 times in 5 of his last 7 for Aston Villa. Meanwhile, Southampton haven’t nailed down a regular left-back this season, with Kyle Walker-Peters, Ryan Manning and Charlie Taylor all occupying the role at times.

It’s likely the Reds will see this area of the pitch as a potential target, which should see Salah highly involved and liable to draw a few fouls from whoever he is up against.

In addition, Aston Villa have committed the 6th most fouls of any Premier League team so far this season, while Southampton sit just outside of the top 10 in 11th.
