Mohamed Salah scored the game’s only goal 24 minutes into a hard-fought battle with the Terriers, who went closest when Jonathan Hogg smacked a shot against the post shortly after the opener.
Salah’s clinical finish from Xherdan Shaqiri’s neat assist ultimately proved enough to increase the Reds’ tally to 23 points, while the clean sheet saw Jürgen Klopp’s side set a new club record for the fewest goals conceded in the first nine league fixtures of a season.
Team news…
With Naby Keita and Sadio Mane ruled out through respective hamstring and hand injuries, Klopp made three changes in Yorkshire – Adam Lallana, Shaqiri and Daniel Sturridge coming into the XI.
