Clinical Salah sets up Liverpool for big week

The 18-time English champions have only dropped points on the road in stalemates with Arsenal and Chelsea FC in London earlier this season.

Meanwhile, he is backing Manchester United to record a first win in five league games when they face Fulham at Old Trafford.

Divock Origi netted a late victor to notch up a 1-0 win over Everton in the Merseyside derby last weekend before Liverpool FC came from behind to secure a 3-1 win at Burnley mid-week.

Mohamed Salah scored a hat trick to help Liverpool thrash Bournemouth 4-0 and move to the top of the Premier League, for several hours, at least.

They lie in wait of Manchester City's result later in the day, before then turning their attention to Tuesday's huge fixture at Anfield against Carlo Ancelotti's side. They play a high intensity, passing game, and with Liverpool's injury list growing, balancing out squad rotation while continuing to remain on the coattails of Man City will be hard.

"I think I said a few years ago that we have to write our own history", Klopp said.

Both Bournemouth and Liverpool are coming off impressive wins midweek.

"United have a few issues with their manager and with different areas of their team but the bottom line is that they just can not seem to win a game - Wednesday's draw with Arsenal was their fourth league game in a row without a victory".

The Egyptian King hadn't scored in his last three games for Liverpool before today, a stark contrast to his form from last season.

The Reds came from 1-0 behind to secure a 3-1 victory over Burnley at Turf Moor courtesy of goals from James Milner, Roberto Firmino and Xherdan Shaqiri.
