Diogo Jota and Mohamed Salah are chasing goal landmarks as Liverpool return to action at Manchester City this weekend.
The former is one goal away from 50 for the Reds in all competitions, while the latter needs two more strikes to bring up 200 since joining the club.
Only four men have previously achieved the double century for Liverpool: Ian Rush (346), Roger Hunt (285), Gordon Hodgson (241) and Billy Liddell (228).
Salah also needs one goal to reach the milestone of 150 in his Premier League career, two of which came while at Chelsea.
Read on for more statistics ahead of the 12.30pm GMT kick-off at Etihad Stadium on Saturday…
