Harry Kane emerged from a bleak Tottenham Hotspur and has since been their talisman over the past three seasons picking up the prestigious Golden Boot award in the past two terms.
However, the £35m Egyptian has so far bagged 13 goals in 16 appearances, while the England frontman has lagged behind with 12.
Is it likely is it that Liverpool's man of the hour will remain at the top of the leaderboard or will Kane equal a record set by Arsenal's Thierry Henry and finish on top for the third successive season?
Currently the pair are almost identical, except the man in red has been far more clinical in front of goal averaging a goal every 4.6 shots while Spurs' hotshot striker hits the back of the net every 7.2 attempts.
However, with Salah possessing less than a full season in red, it is hard to look past a man who has been a consistent threat on goal for three consecutive years, averaging more than a goal a game at 0.80 with 90 in his last 131 appearances in the Premier League.
Liverpool's Egyptian International has the chance to pull ahead tonight as West Brom travel to Anfield with The Baggies already shipping 22 goals this season, a respectable figure for a side battling relegation.
While, Kane will be hoping some chances come his way against Brighton & Hove Albion with this the second time the Englishman has faced the newly promoted side, as he scored past them in a 2-0 League Cup win back in 2014.
Kane is currently the favourite in the bookies, at 7/4 to take home the award come May, but Salah is at evens, in what is becoming a two-horse race.
