Hoping to end a 15-year sequence without a win against Real Madrid, Liverpool butt heads with the reigning Champions League champions at Anfield on Wednesday evening.

Arne Slot's men have the chance to make it five victories from five in the 2024-25 league phase and enter the game on the back of an enthralling 3-2 success over Southampton in the Premier League, where Mohamed Salah conjured up a heroic second-half brace.

The 32-year-old soon hit the headlines for another bombshell contract interview after the game, but he is still shining as bright as ever on the field and will relish Wednesday's game if he is to leave Liverpool at the end of the season.

Ahead of what may be Salah's last match against Real Madrid for Liverpool, Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how the winger has performed against Los Blancos in the past.

Mohamed Salah's record vs. Real Madrid

Played: 8
Won: 0
Drawn: 1
Lost: 7
Goals: 2
Assists: 1

Of all the teams that Mohamed Salah has faced in his distinguished career, Real Madrid are one of only two clubs that he has met at least five times without ever winning, the other being Egyptian Premier League outfit Enppi SC.

Indeed, the former Chelsea and Roma man has never triumphed in eight previous battles with Real Madrid, all of which have been fought in the Champions League, losing seven of them and being involved in one draw.

Salah's individual numbers against Los Blancos are therefore relatively unremarkable too, as he has only scored twice against the 15-time European champions from those eight battles while providing one assist.

Two of those contributions came at Anfield in the 2022-23 Champions League last 16, where a dream start for Salah and Liverpool saw the Egyptian set up Darwin Nunez's fourth-minute opener before scoring himself just 10 minutes later.

However, Carlo Ancelotti's merciless men then came storming back to take a 5-2 first-leg lead back to the Bernabeu, where Salah played the full 90 minutes but could not inspire a monumental comeback as the Reds exited the tournament 6-2 on aggregate.

Salah's only other direct involvement against Real Madrid came in the 2020-21 quarter-finals, but his goal on that occasion was also inconsequential in a 3-1 first-leg defeat, before a second-leg goalless draw sent Los Blancos through to the final four.

What could have been for Salah and Liverpool in 2018, though, as the winger infamously left the field in tears with just half an hour played of the Kyiv final, having sustained an arm injury in a challenge with Sergio Ramos.

Before achieving legendary status with Liverpool, Salah tackled Real Madrid with Roma in the last 16 of the 2015-16 Champions League, but he went scoreless and assist-less in both legs as the Italian side lost 4-0 on aggregate.
