Mohamed Salah first encountered Everton in Premier League action during his forgettable period at Chelsea, although he was an unused substitute in a pair of wins during the 2013-14 and 2014-15 seasons before departing for Serie A.
Upon his return to English soil, though, Salah quickly made his presence felt against Everton and scored on his first appearance against the Toffees, breaking the deadlock at Anfield in December 2017 before Wayne Rooney equalised for the visitors.
However, Salah failed to make the cut for the return fixture at Goodison Park due to injury, before drawing a pair of blanks in the 2018-19 season and finding himself on the bench for both derbies in the Reds' title-winning 2019-20 campaign.
The former Chelsea attacker did open his Goodison Park account in October 2020, but Liverpool were pegged back on two occasions in that 2-2 draw, while also losing Virgil van Dijk to his excruciating ACL injury.

Salah was then unable to prevent Liverpool from slumping to a 2-0 Anfield loss in February 2021, but his Merseyside fortunes quickly a turn for the better, either scoring or assisting in three of his four appearances against the Toffees across the 2021-22 and 2022-23 Premier League seasons.
The Egyptian netted twice in a 4-1 Goodison Park crushing in December 2021, where his second goal was Liverpool's 500th in the Premier League under Klopp and also saw him become the first Reds player to directly contribute to a goal in seven successive games in the competition.
Salah then provided an inch-perfect cross for Andy Robertson to head home in a 2-0 Anfield success later that season, and while his powers waned in a goalless Goodison draw in September 2022, he got back on track with the first of the night in a 2-0 triumph back in February 2023.
The opening Merseyside derby of the 2023-24 term also saw Salah strike both of the Reds' goals in a 2-0 success, but he and his teammates cut tepid figures in a 2-0 Goodison loss in April 2024, just his second defeat from 12 games against Liverpool's bitter foes.
However, thanks to a goal and assist in the pulsating 2-2 draw during the final Goodison Park battle of 2025, Salah boasts a strong total of eight goals and two assists from 12 matches against the Toffees, albeit while only ending up on the winning side on five occasions.
