    44'
    The Kop singing Robertson's name after that goal. He was very much the architect of Salah's second of the night. Liverpool looking good to move up to third spot at this point.
    43'
    GOAL! Salah nets his 34th of the season as he touches home Robertson's delicious low cross from close range after the left-back had exchanged a clever one-two with Mane.

    This time Mane finds space down the left. He gets to the byline but he miscues his cross and can't pick out Salah who was arriving on cue on the middle.
    41'
    Watford will be all to aware of the fact Liverpool look more menacing when they break at pace. One of their best spells of the half saw the Reds cut them open with two clinical passes.
    40'
    A succession of Liverpool corners come to nothing.
    39'
    SAVE! Salah breaks free down the left. He cuts inside and slides a super pass into Firmino. The Brazilian bamboozles Britos before seeing his venomous drive beaten away by Orestis Karnezis.
    38'
    Karius has kept 10 clean sheets in 20 appearances this season for the home side. It's been a quiet evening so far for the stopper.
    37'
    Karius finally has something to do as he plucks Richarlison's header out of the air after more good work on the right by Pereyra.
    35'
    Salah arcs a devilish right-wing corner to the far post where Firmino is an inch or two away from rising to connect with it.
    34'
    Salah opens up his legs and surges down the right. The Anfield crowd buzz with anticipation, but Prodl gets across to make a superb sliding challenge.
    33'
    Signs that Watford could yet pose the hosts a few problems. It had been a very one-sided opening half an hour.
    32'
    Lovely skill from Pereyra on the right to nutmeg Mane with a delightful flick. He fizzes in a dangerous, low cross too, but it is well defended.
    31'
    Holebas hangs a free kick midway inside the Liverpool half towards Prodl, who nods it back across goal from the right - but he's been flagged offside. The Reds held a good line, high up the pitch there to catch him out.
    30'
    Watford's last away victory on their travels came at Newcastle back in November. They need two goals to do that and they have only ever managed that once before. That came back in 1985 - and they still lost 4-3!
    29'
    Salah threatening to run through the Watford defence from the right once more, but Holebas sticks to his task and makes an important challenge to derail the Egyptian's path to goal.
    28'
    LIVERPOOL CHANGE: Can off, Milner on.

    Emre Can is grimacing and holding his lower back. He gestures to the bench and it looks like the German is going off.
    25'
    Abdoulaye Doucouré with a burst forward from deep. He lays it wide to try and open up Liverpool on their left, but Robertson mops up and arrows a good ball down the line to start another Reds attack.
    24'
    Watford have barely been out of their own half.
    22'
    21'
    The resulting corner is half cleared. Wijnaldum glides in from the left but is eventually crowded out as he looked to barge his way into a shooting position.
