Premier League Stat Pack

Liverpool striker Luis Suarez claimed his first PL hat trick at the weekend in his sides 3-0 win over Norwich City at Carrow Road on Saturday night

He becomes the 13^th player to achieve this for the Reds in the Premier League but has some way to go to catch the leaders, Robbie Fowler and Michael Owen with eight and seven respectively  

Man City have now taken 52 points at home this season in the PL and are on target to equal the PL record of 55 points set by Manchester United and Chelsea, who both won the title when they achieved this feat

United did it in the 2010/11 season and the one blot on their copybook was a 2-2 draw at home to West Brom with United throwing away a 2-0 lead with goals from Javier Hernandez and Nani in the opening 25 minutes, West Brom got back into the game with Patrice Evra putting through his own goal and then Somen Tchoyi capitalizing on an error from United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar 

Chelsea did it in the 2005/06 season with their 100% record foiled with a 1-1 draw against Charlton Athletic at Stamford Bridge

Chelsea took the lead with a 19^th minute goal from Eidur Gudjohnsen, which was cancelled out on 59 minutes by Marcus Bent        

Everton scored four goals in back to back Premier matches for only the second time in their PL history with their 4-0 win over Fulham at Goodison Park coming after they picked up a point at Old Trafford in a 4-4 draw against title chasing Manchester United

The last time they achieved this was back in the 1999/00 season with back-to-back wins at Goodison Park against Southampton and Wimbledon with 4-1 and 4-0 score lines respectively 

Swansea scored the quickest Premier League goal of the season with a 24 second stroke from Andrea Orlandi, this is the quickest PL goal since Kevin Doyle scored after 16 seconds for Reading back in September 2006 

Newcastle United striker Papiss Cisse fails to become the fourth player to score in seven consecutive PL matches as his club slip to a 4-0 defeat away at Wigan Athletic, Cisse would have joined van Nistelrooy, Adebayor and Stein 

Fulham start with 11 foreign players in their match away at Everton, this is the third time they have done so, and breaks the record of two they shared with Arsenal, Wigan Athletic are the only other side to do this 

Wigan Athletic equal their biggest ever PL win with their 4-0 win at the DW Stadium against Champions League chasing Newcastle United, their only other 4-0 was a home success against Manchester City back in October 2006
