Opta stats

Liverpool have won three consecutive Premier League games for the first time in 2017, having last done so in December 2016 (a run of four wins).

This was Jurgen Klopp's first victory over Southampton in the Premier League (W1 D3 L1), meaning he has now won against 21 of the 23 teams he has faced in the competition - only against Manchester United (4) and Newcastle United (3) has he failed to win.

Mohamed Salah has scored 14 goals in all competitions for Liverpool in 2017/18; the most of any Premier League player.

Salah has netted nine goals in the Premier League this term; the most by any Liverpool player in their first 12 appearances in the competition.

Man of the match - Mohamed Salah

Liverpool failed to score against Southampton in four games last season, twice in the Premier League, and on another two occasions in the League Cup. However, the Reds did not have Salah at their disposal.
