Liverpool vs RB Salzburg: 3 players who could change the game on their own | Champions League 2019/20
#1 Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)
Mohamed Salah has made a very good start to the Premier League season. The Egyptian is not the leading scorer in the domestic league this campaign, but has four goals and three assists from seven games. He is yet to break the deadlock in the European competition after failing to find the back of the net against Napoli in the opening game week.
The former Roma forward operates through the right-wing for the Reds and has the capability of wrecking opposition’s defence if they are not at their best. Salzburg will play four at the back and only one defensive midfielder will sit back with the defence. This could help Salah’s course who likes to run behind the defence more often.
With Roberto Firmino and potentially one of Naby Keita or Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain playing behind, Salah will have tons of chances to find the back of the net. If the Egyptian manages to be clinical, he can rack up goals.
