The Longest Premier League Scoring Streaks in History: Arsenal's 55-game record remains untouchable

← Back

 



The ability to score consistently ranks among the most valuable attributes of any football team. Throughout Premier League history, several clubs have managed to create impressive runs of consecutive matches with at least one goal scored.

Arsenal 2001-2002: Untouchable record of 55 games

The record for the longest streak of consecutive Premier League matches with a goal belongs to Arsenal by a considerable margin. While the Invincibles of 2003-04 are more celebrated, Arsène Wenger's 2001-02 title winners achieved something that remains unmatched - they scored in every single one of their 38 league matches.

The streak began after disappointment from a goalless draw against Newcastle. Ashley Cole started the scoring run with a goal in a 3-2 defeat at Southampton. After winning the title with 100% scoring success in 2001-02, the streak finally ended on 7 December 2002 with a 2-0 defeat at Old Trafford, where Thierry Henry came close to extending the run.

Tottenham 2023-2024: Modern success with 39 games

Following a 1-0 defeat at Wolverhampton in March 2023, which was the third-to-last game of Antonio Conte's reign, Spurs opened the floodgates. Under Ange Postecoglou's leadership, the team promised attacking football and delivered on that promise.

Spurs scored in their final 12 games of the 2022-23 season and continued for another 27 matches under the Australian manager. They became only the second team in history to score in a full season's worth of Premier League games (38) before the streak ended in a 3-0 defeat to Fulham.

Liverpool: Repeated success

Liverpool appears four times in the rankings. Their longest streak of 36 games from 2019-2020 helped secure their first title in 30 years. Under Jürgen Klopp, the team won 26 of their first 27 matches of the season, drawing only 1-1 with Manchester United.

Current Liverpool under Arne Slot has an active 36-game streak that began with a 3-0 win over Bournemouth in September 2024 and continues into the new season.

Brighton: Surprising strength

Among the most impressive records is Brighton's 32-game streak from 2023. Under Roberto De Zerbi, the team scored in each of their final 16 games of 2022-23 and first 16 games of the following season, despite being in their fifth Premier League season.

Historical context

In the overall history of English top-flight football, Arsenal still holds the record with 55 games, followed by historical streaks from Manchester City in 1936-37 (44 games) and 1957-1958 (43 games).

DE BRUYNE'S FAREWELL TO ETIHAD FACES CHERRIES' ROAD INVINCIBILITY

Image
  May 20, 2025   Manchester City - AFC Bournemouth   Etihad Stadium, Manchester On Tuesday, May 20, 2025, Manchester City will face AFC Bournemouth in the 37th round of the Premier League. The match offers a likely farewell of the home star Kevin De Bruyne to Etihad Stadium against a team with excellent away form. Manchester City have won all seven of their Premier League home games against Bournemouth – only Arsenal (10 vs Stoke) and Manchester United (8 vs Wigan) have a better 100% home win rate against an opponent in the competition. The Citizens thus represent an insurmountable obstacle for the Cherries at their own ground. Bournemouth won the reverse fixture against Man City 2-1 in November, having been winless in their first 20 league meetings with the Citizens beforehand (D2 L18). The South England side thus achieved a historic success this season. Manchester City have won their final home league game in 10 of the last 11 seasons (D1), including each of the la...

Marks Could Be the Next Irving: NFL Draft 2025 Late-Round Gems

Image
  Bucky Irving proved last year that the fourth round can hide future stars. His 1,122 rushing yards and eight touchdowns made him the most productive rookie runner in the NFL. Now the search continues - which of this year's late picks will repeat similar success? The pattern is clear. Irving followed the path of Isiah Pacheco, Kansas City's seventh-round gem from 2022. Both had one thing in common - they weren't college superstars with astronomical numbers, but they proved efficiency and ability to maximize opportunities. Among this year's candidates, Marks from USC stands out most, selected by Houston in the fourth round. His transformation is remarkable - four years at Mississippi State never exceeded 600 yards per season, but a single season at USC brought 1,133 yards with impressive 6.8 yards per carry. Marks has an ideal situation for immediate impact. Joe Mixon ahead of him has injury history and Houston under new coordinator Nick Caley is looking for fresh b...
