Salah hasn't quite hit the heights of his prolific form of last season, but the Egypt international is still among the deadliest finishers in the league. He reacted quickest when Bluebirds defender Sean Morrison had blocked his initial shot.

The goal continued the terrific pace for finding the net Salah has set since he joined Liverpool. His march to beyond 50 goals has put big names like Hazard to shame:

Salah has also been an equal-opportunity scorer, with only one team in England's top flight yet to be punished by the gifted forward:

Liverpool laboured to put the game away and had to wait until the 65th minute for Mane to settle the nerves and move to within one of his own half-century of goals for the Reds.

Callum Paterson's close-range finish 12 minutes from time put the pressure back on Liverpool, but the hosts finally made the points safe six minutes from time courtesy of substitute Xherdan Shaqiri.

Mane then added a fourth in the 87th minute to confirm his 50:

Bournemouth looked to Wilson for inspiration at Fulham, and the in-form striker delivered. He won a penalty after 14 minutes after drawing a foul from Manchester United loanee Timothy Fosu-Mensah.

Wilson coolly dispatched the spot-kick to put the Cherries in control at the break.

Their lead was finally doubled after 71 minutes when Wilson and Ryan Fraser combined to release David Brooks. The 21-year-old winger made no mistake with his chance to pile the misery on Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic.

Things went from bad to worse for Jokanovic when Fraser played Wilson in and he didn't waste his chance to complete a brace.

Watford were in control after Pereyra's mazy run took him past half a dozen would-be tacklers before the Argentinian maestro stroked in a fine finish. The ease of his solo effort left some torn between offering praise or criticism:

More slack defending allowed Gerard Deulofeu to double the Hornets' advantage on 19 minutes. The former Barcelona academy graduate led Huddersfield Town defenders on a merry dance before slotting in with aplomb.

Isaac Success made it 3-0 10 minutes from time following a slick and sweeping set-piece routine. The result, along with Newcastle's draw, has condemned the Terriers to the division's basement.

It took Murray just three minutes after the restart to bring up a century of goals for Brighton after turning in from Bruno's cross. The prolific 35-year-old is now in select company:

Fabian Balbuena headed the Hammers into a first-half lead, but the visitors were soon reduced to 10 men when Mark Noble was shown a straight red card after a foul on Wilfred Ndidi.

It was Ndidi who equalised for the Foxes a minute from time.

Things stayed scoreless between goal-shy Southampton and Newcastle. Danny Ings was lively up top for the Saints, but the Newcastle defence stood strong with centre-back Federico Fernandez particularly impressive.

A point apiece hasn't done much for either side's hopes of beating the drop.
