Notes

- The only penalty Hunt scored from for Liverpool. He took another one later in the season against Arsenal on 15th of February which he missed. Hunt succeeded Ronnie Moran as penalty-taker after Moran had missed three in the opening weeks of the season. Until Hunt went up to the spot Shankly had declined to reveal who would be replacing Moran.
