Newcastle United now clear second when 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 competitions (as of the evening of 12 January 2025):

18 and 2 Liverpool

16 and 5 Newcastle United

13 and 5 Forest

12 and 5 Chelsea

12 and 7 Man City

11 and 7 Villa

11 and 10 Tottenham

10 and 5 Bournemouth

9 and 5 Fulham

9 and 6 Brighton

9 and 9 Man U

9 and 11 Brentford

8 and 8 Palace

7 and 11 West Ham

6 and 13 Wolves

6 and 13 Leicester

5 and 9 Everton

5 and 17 Southampton

4 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.

This past week has seen wins at Tottenham, Arsenal and home to Bromley, meaning now only Liverpool have won more domestic games than United!

Indeed, Newcastle now having won two more matches than Arsenal, three more than Forest, as well as four more than Man City and Chelsea.

United made it eight victories in a row on Sunday afternoon.

Up next, Premier League home games against Wolves and Bournemouth.

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 fifteen United matches (all competitions) over the course of eleven weeks, have seen eleven wins, two draws and only the two defeats since October.
