Interesting football history ⚽️
⚠️ Man City are outsiders to win a Premier League match for the first time today since April 2017
⚽️ Eden Hazard scored a brace that day as Chelsea won 2-1 at Stamford Bridge
The only City player's still in the squad who started that day are Kevin De Bruyne and John Stones
Great question! Defoe actually beats Owen to that one, with 12 more PL goals and only getting to 18 in a single season (For Spurs in 09/10).
Surprisingly though the only time Andy Cole got to 20+ was in a 42 game season.
Would be the 3rd time he’s got to 9!

If Sunderland share the spoils with Sheffield United tonight it will be their 6th draw on the bounce.
The record for most consecutive draws in English football is 8, and is shared by SEVEN teams.
Will the black cats take the record this season?
🔟 No player has more premier league goals than Welbeck’s 73 without ever having scored 10 or more in a single season.
With 6 goals already this year, can he finally break his double figure duck? 🦆

Sir Alex Ferguson’s final game in charge of Man Utd was the only time his side shared 10 goals in a game.
A certain Romelu Lukaku scored a hattrick that day as West Brom came from three goals down to make it 5-5.
