Most hat-tricks in a single season at EPL

Currently, Erling Haaland has a total of 4 hat-tricks after 26 games in the EPL. The record holder for the most hat-tricks in the EPL in a single season is Alan Shearer with 5 (season 1995/96). Haaland can completely break this record of the former Blackburn Rovers striker in Man City’s remaining 11 matches in the Premier League this season.

Most goals scored in a single season at EPL

In the first 3 seasons since the English Premier League was born in 1992, the tournament has 22 teams, each team plays a total of 42 matches / season. The record for most goals scored during this period is 34 goals belonging to Andy Cole (Newcastle, 1993/94) and Alan Shearer (Blackburn Rovers, 1994/95 season).

From the 1995/96 season until now, the number of participating teams has decreased to 20, each team plays a total of 38 matches per season, the number of scoring opportunities is also reduced. Mohamed Salah is the one who holds the record for the most goals at this stage with 32 goals. Erling Haaland has scored 28 goals in 26 Premier League games. This is a terrible scoring performance that Haaland has achieved since moving to England to play. He only needs to score five of the remaining 11 games to break Mohamed Salah’s record for most goals in a single season at the EPL. Even Haaland can break the record of Andy Cole and Alan Shearer with fewer matches.

Most goals scored in a season in the league

Messi is the person with the record for the most goals scored in a domestic tournament in the top 5 European leagues with 50 goals (2011/12). With the current number of 28 goals, Haaland is close to scoring 2 goals in each of the remaining 11 matches to at least equal the record with Messi. This is not an easy challenge. But with the Norwegian striker, fans can expect him to break any record related to the number of goals.

Most goals scored in a season in the Champions League

The record for the most goals scored in a single season in the Champions League is currently held by superstar Cristiano Ronaldo when playing for Real Madrid in the 2013/14 season with 17 tears in the opponent’s net. Haaland’s current number of goals is 10 goals. If he can join Man City to the Champions League final this season, Haaland will have 5 matches to break the record of the Portuguese legend and write his name in the history of this tournament.

Score the most goals in all competitions in a season

The current total of Haaland’s goals is 42 goals in all competitions. He needs to score at least 31 goals to equal the record held by Lionel Messi for the most goals scored in a season in all competitions with 73 goals in 60 appearances in the 2011/12 season. Man City still have at least 3 competitions with 18 matches if they can reach the final of both the Champions League and the FA Cup.

Haaland will have at least 14 games for the rest of the season to break Messi’s record including: 11 games in the EPL; 2 matches against Bayern Munich in the Champions League and an FA Cup semi-final against Sheffield.
