Liverpool star Mohamed Salah is expected to start against Brighton, Wednesday, in the match that is scheduled at Anfield in the 22nd round of the Premier League.

According to the official Liverpool website, Salah needs to score one goal in order to equal the former Reds legend Kenny Dalglish's record versus Brighton.

Dalglish netted six times against Hove Albion during his Reds career – with Salah needing only one more goal to match that tally.

The Egyptian International currently has five goals from seven games with Brighton, while Dalglish's tally came from 10 appearances.

Salah has 21 goals during this season in all competitions – only two fewer than he netted in the whole of last season.

The No.11 has scored four times in his last three games and is three goals behind Ian St John, who is 13th on the club's all-time goalscorers list with 118.

The Reds are four goals short of recording 250 in league games at Anfield under Klopp.

Liverpool are unbeaten in 12 games against Brighton – winning 10 and drawing two – since losing in the 1984 FA Cup.
