Which player has made the most Premier League appearances?

James Milner is the Premier League’s all-time record appearance holder. The midfielder made his top-flight debut with Leeds in 2002 and went on to represent the likes of Newcastle, Aston Villa and Brighton. Milner won titles with Man City and Liverpool and can boast 658 appearances overall. Milner hung up his boots in June 2026 after 24 consecutive Premier League seasons.

What team has scored the most goals in a single Premier League season?

2026-27 Premier League betting favourites Man City scored 106 times on their way to the title in 2017-18. Under the guidance of wily old boss Pep Guardiola, the Cityzens slayed all before them and actually set a number of Premier League records that season.

Who is the Premier League’s all-time leading goalscorer?

Alan Shearer is the Premier League’s top goalscorer having netted 260 top-flight goals for Blackburn and Newcastle.

Shearer netted 148 times for his boyhood club before retiring in 2006.

What is the longest unbeaten home record in Premier League history?

One of the most astonishing Premier League records belongs to Chelsea. The Blues went 86 games unbeaten at Stamford Bridge between March 2004 and October 2008. Legendary boss Jose Mourinho oversaw 60 of those matches.

Which game was the highest-scoring match of all-time in the Premier League?

Portsmouth’s 7-4 victory over Reading in September 2007 is the highest-scoring Premier League match of all-time. The 11-goal thriller saw Benjani net a hat-trick for Pompey and the last six strikes all came in the last 20 minutes of the Fratton Park epic.

Who conceded the least number of goals in a single Premier League season?

Chelsea conceded just 15 times on their way to the Premier League title in 2004-05. It was Jose Mourinho’s maiden campaign in England and the ‘Special One’ would only suffer a single defeat that year. Bolton and Arsenal were the only sides to score more than once in a single game against the Blues.

Has a Premier League side ever registered 100+ points across a single campaign?

One of the most fascinating Premier League records set by Man City occurred in 2017-18 whereby the Cityzens registered exactly 100 points. Gabriel Jesus scored the only goal of the game against Southampton on the final day to ensure the three-digit haul. The Brazilian’s effort was netted in second-half injury time.

Arsenal’s Invincibles went unbeaten for 49 Premier League matches between May 2003 and October 2004.

Who has kept the most consecutive Premier League clean sheets?

Man United kept 14 clean sheets in a row during the glory years of Sir Alex Ferguson at the helm. The Red Devils kept their shutouts between November 2008 and February 2009 and would go on to win a third successive title. That equated to exactly 1,310 minutes that goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar didn’t pick the ball out of the back of his net.

Which team has scored in the most consecutive Premier League matches?

Arsenal scored in an impressive 55 consecutive Premier League matches between May 2001 and November 2002. The run began after the final day 3-2 defeat to Southampton in 2000-01 and ended during the 2-0 loss to Man United in 2002-03.
