Salah also holds the record for most assists in the opening Premier League match, with 15.
In general, since joining Liverpool, Salah has contributed at least one goal in every opening Premier League match, scoring in all but one of them against Chelsea in 2023, when he provided an assist.
The Egyptian King made history with this goal, as it was his 106th at Anfield for Liverpool, making him the most goalscorer for an English team at home, tied with Sergio Agüero at the Etihad Stadium for Manchester City.
