Liverpool vs Arsenal: Mo Salah vs Aubameyang records and H2H

Salah and Aubameyang hold the record for being the fastest to 50 Premier League goals for their respective clubs. Although Aubameyang did it in 79 appearances, Salah achieved the feat in 69 games for Liverpool. The two African forwards have also been top scorers for their respective teams over the past two seasons in the Premier League. 

Salah scored a hat-trick against Leeds United on Matchday 1 while Aubameyang opened his account with a wonder goal against Fulham. However, ever since Aubameyang arrived in the Premier League, the Gabon striker has been more prolific with his goalscoring, netting a total of 55 goals for the North London giants. It remains to be seen who among Salah or Aubameyang comes out on top on Monday night, though Salah has a more stellar goalscoring record at Anfield.
