When could Salah break the record for most FPL points in a season?
The Scout delves into the data to determine when Mohamed Salah (£13.8m) could break the record for most points in a Fantasy Premier League season.
Following Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Newcastle United, Salah sits on 291 points, which is already the third-highest score EVER over a whole season in Fantasy.
Only Luis Suarez and Salah himself have produced more points in a single campaign. Suarez racked up 295 points in the 2013/14 season while Salah hit a record 303 points in 2017/18.

Salah is just 12 points away from equalling his record score – and it could happen in the next Gameweek, when the Reds host Southampton on Saturday 8 March.
The Egyptian scored 13 points against Saints earlier in the season, and a repeat performance would take him up to 304 points overall.

A further assessment of Liverpool’s schedule shows that FOUR of their next six league matches are at Anfield, with Everton, West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur also visiting in addition to Southampton.
A look at Salah’s displays against those four opponents earlier in 2024/25 indicates he is on course to SMASH his career-high score.
Salah delivered double-figure hauls against ALL of them.
