Assists in win Silva assisted once to go with zero corners in Tuesday's 2-0 win against Celtic.

Impact Silva has scored or assists in two matches in the 2022/23 campaign, and those are both fixtures against Celtic.

Against Celtic Silva has been unstoppable though, with two goals and an assist in the two matches.

He will hope to lead the line in 2022/23, especially if Christopher Nkunku departs Leipzig.
