Mohamed Salah to score anytime

You may want to stop your bet builder right there. However, you may want to increase the value of your potential payout by adding a fifth bet builder market.
Mohamed Salah goes into Friday’s game at home in fine form. The Egyptian winger has seven goals and four assists in 15 Premier League matches. Salah scored in each of his last two games for Liverpool since returning from the World Cup break.
The World Cup break was ideal for Salah, as it gave him the chance to rest and get fit for the next phase of the campaign. Salah scored and set up another goal on Boxing Day against Aston Villa. He should start on the right side once more with Nunez through the middle. Liverpool’s left-wing position is currently a problem area due to Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz being long-term injury problems.
Our betting tips prediction is for Salah to score anytime. He is Liverpool’s penalty taker, so a spot-kick would see Salah have the chance to score.
