Players with the most Premier League goals as a substitute since Jhon Durán made his debut in the competition (4 Feb 2023):
8 – Jhon Durán
7 – Callum Wilson

Aston Villa’s 20-year-old supersub delivered again.
80 - Jhon Durán has now scored nine goals in 719 minutes in the Premier League; among players to have scored at least two goals in the competition, only Erling Haaland has a better mins/goal average (1 goal every 79 minutes). Unstoppable.

The Eagles’ failure to beat Manchester United means that the 2024/25 Premier League season is now the first English top-flight campaign to feature six winless teams after five matches.
2 - Manchester United have only won two of their last eight Premier League games against teams starting the day in the bottom half (D4 L2), with those victories both coming against promoted sides: 4-2 v Sheff United in April and 3-0 v Southampton this month. Inconsistency.
