Newcastle United now clear second when it comes to Premier League teams winning football matches | OneFootball

Newcastle United as measured up against any other Premier League team.

Which Premier League team is outperforming a rival?

For Newcastle United and the rest, it surely comes down to what it always does.

How many matches you are winning!

So I have had a look at all 20 Premier League clubs this season…

We are now five months into the 2024/25 season, this is how many matches each Premier League team has won (and lost), in Premier League AND domestic cup competition (as of the morning of 8 January 2025):

17 and 1 Liverpool

15 and 5 Newcastle United

12 and 5 Forest

11 and 5 Chelsea

11 and 7 Man City

10 and 7 Villa

9 and 5 Bournemouth

9 and 10 Brentford

9 and 10 Tottenham

8 and 5 Fulham

8 and 6 Brighton

8 and 9 Man U

7 and 8 Palace

7 and 10 West Ham

5 and 13 Wolves

5 and 13 Leicester

4 and 9 Everton

4 and 17 Southampton

3 and 11 Ipswich

As you can see above, when it comes to domestic competitions this season, Newcastle United are now the second most successful, when it comes to winning football matches.

Tuesday night’s deserved victory at the Emirates meaning now only Liverpool have won more domestic games than United!

Eddie Howe’s side have of course inflicted two of the three defeats Arsenal have suffered this season!

Great credit to Forest as well, who are now third in the list when it comes to winning football matches this 2024/25 season. Once again, worth mentioning that it is Newcastle who have been responsible for two of their minimal number of defeats as well.

United made it seven victories in a row on Tuesday night,

Newcastle United have now won four matches more than both Man City and Chelsea.

Yet until very recently, some Newcastle United fans had been wanting Eddie Howe sacked…

The media (and some Newcastle fans) still making out that it had been some kind of recent NUFC crisis, yet the last fourteen United matches (all competitions) over the course of ten weeks, have seen ten wins, two draws and only the two defeats.
