EPL biggest win record: What is the greatest margin in English Premier League
EPL biggest win record: What is the greatest margin in English Premier League history?
The English Premier League is widely regarded as the greatest competition in the world. Teams are regularly matching each other and any team from the relegation zone can beat a top club anytime.
As such, we are not strangers to seeing wins by a large margin as well. However, you and I may wonder what the biggest win record in English Premier League history is?
We will only talk about the English Premier League which originated in 1992, and not the English League that existed before.
Greatest margin in English Premier League
The biggest win record by goals is actually 4 different matches. The scoreline was a whopping 9 goals to nil, demonstrating the domination of one team over the other. Manchester United was the first to gain this record when they beat Ipswich Town 9-0 on March 4, 1995.
The victory was at Old Trafford as well making it the biggest Premier League results at home. Andy Cole was the main man as he scored 5 goals that day, another Premier League record still unsurpassed today.
Legendary manager Alex Ferguson was the one to gain this record.
The record was unmatched for years until Leicester City trashed Southampton 9-0 on October 25, 2019. They gained this victory at Southampton’s home Saint Mary’s Stadium.
This makes it the biggest victory away from home and which only Leicester can boast of. Southampton had Ryan Bertrand sent off in the 12 th minute as well.
Both Jamie Vardy and Ayoze Perez had each scored hat tricks.
Southampton was again on the receiving end of another 9-0 thrashing by Manchester United under Ole Gunnar Solskjær at Old Trafford on February 2, 2021.
Southampton had two red cards, one in only the second minute and another in the 86 th minute. United had seven different scorers that game with Martial the only one with a brace.
This equalized a Premier League record of most scorers in a match. Southampton also had an own goal due to Jan Bedranek who had received the second red card as well. United is the only team to beat two different teams 9- 0 in Premier League history.
The loss also made Ralph Hasenhüttl the only manager and Southampton are the only team to lose 9-0 twice in the Premier League.
Liverpool also beat Bournemouth 9-0 earlier at Anfield this season on August 27, 2022. They scored five goals in the first half itself. Luiz Diaz and Roberto Firmino both had braces, with the latter also having a hat trick of assists. Surprisingly their main star Mohamed Salah didn’t have a single goal involvement despite playing the whole match.
This was the fourth and last match to feature a 9-0 win record.
So these were the EPL’s biggest win records.
We can be quite sure that we may soon see this records reach double figures in the coming years.
There is NO REASON for Gareth Southgate to be linked with the Manchester United job
Gareth Southgate is the only person in the Universe who can turn Manchester United into Middlesbrough within no time
The English media is trying all their best to push Southgate to united, but he is championship level manager at best
The England national team is waay better than this Manu squad, and he has had 0 success ( reaching semis ain’t success). So what exactly are people expecting if he becomes Manu boss
Absolutely no way! Why would Man U hire Southgate? That would be the worse decision in the history of the game.
ETH outwitted Klopp last weekend in one of the best and most dramatic FA cup clashes in years and I’m sorry but Southgate would not have won that game and ETH has had to deal with Ronaldo, Sancho, Greenwood and so on, he deserves more time

I have been saying this for weeks now. If United were under any other manager especially Southgate, they would be fighting for relegation right now. The problem at United is not Ten Hag but the players.
People keep saying that Ten Hag’s style of football at United is not attractive and no identity but there is so much that a manager can do if the players themselves are not good enough or not putting enough effort. Ten Hag’s Ajax were playing attractive football and he managed to get them to the SF of the CL.
Without him, look at Ajax now. And the media keep pushing their agenda to get Ten Hag sack and replace him with a much worse manager like Southgate. If Ten Hag is managing England right now, with the players they have, we won’t see such a passive football like we saw yesterday vs Brazil. Ask Liverpool fans, would they replace Klopp with Southgate? I rest my case.
- Ten Hag Says Man United Are on Track
- Liverpool blame themselves for FA Cup loss to Man United
- Man United searching for Erik ten Hag replacement
Liverpool only have themselves to blame for loss to Manchester United. Had to find a way to squeeze in the random Bruno slag off in between. Dude was dead on his feet at full time, and had to slot in to center back for the last 30 minutes.
SportsFila reflect on Manchester United’s 4-3 win over Liverpool in the FA Cup Quarterfinals and look ahead to the semifinals where Erik ten Hag’s side will take on Coventry.
How come everybody seems to have forgotten that 2 of LFC’s goals were pure luck?
More shots, same shots on goal, higher goal expectancy. What is this narrative that Liverpool should have put this game away, if anything we should’ve put this game away! They had a good 20, 25 minute stint where they kept the ball in the second half, but did nothing with it, we deservedly won this game.

For Liverpool fans: don’t say that we lost to Manchester United because Jota Trent Alisson and jones didn’t play. We have to stop doing that every time a team loses a big game it’s very stupid because had you won, you wouldn’t be saying that. Don’t forget that when y’all drew 0-0 to them at home Trent Alisson and Jones started. Keep in mind how well they’ve been playing despite having lots of injuries they almost beat Manchester City’s full strength squad last week.
Also, you lose to Manchester United, 2 fringe players for them decided the game for them, Liverpool didn’t play well and a loss is a loss you have to accept it otherwise you’re a sole loser and are unwilling to take it.
It’s interesting how nothing much is said about the mistakes made by Liverpool, but all criticism is piled on Bruno; how supposedly poor he was.
Ten Hag claims United is moving in the right direction 👀 WHAT DIRECTION IS THAT?!
Every time he speaks after a dismal performance after the match I always sit there saying to myself “What on Earth are you talking about”.
The media trying so hard to get ETH sacked…..when liverpool had bad injuries with VVD out, y’all didnt have the same energy
Most fans want ETH out because of his poor tactics and substitutions. I also felt he should be braver to drop non-performing players irrespective of names, and even play academy players if he has to.
Now I’m ETH in because I realise from Rooney’s and Ole’s recent interviews that the mentality of these players are incredibly low and it’s no longer just speculation that the players can’t cope on this stage.
I can understand ETH saying positive things and coming off as “crazy” but if you have players who are weak minded and aren’t willing to fight, you can’t be tough cos they’ll cave and where does that leave you for the rest of the season?! Jason Sancho case in point. I rather come across as insane to the media but hope that I’m lifting the team enough to get a string of performances to save my job and give the fans at least something to cheer about until I can have a summer clear out.
Keane is a freaking legend but that approach with these weak players will kill them and ETH would lose the dressing room.
This man keeps dropping off bombs on and off the field..A gift that keeps on giving..Most delulu man on this green earth
What a GIFT! Hand him a 15 years contract and 5 years add ons
The problem for Utd in recruiting an elite manager in the Summer is that Liverpool, Bayern and Barca will also be looking for new managers.
From the moment I heard “A new era begins. .” from ETH. I knew it was the joke of the century. He has the guts to say it while Klopp/Guardiola are competing against each other by 1 point in the Primer league he acted like he can compete with them ro
