Bettor.com has collected some really interesting and unique stats for all the Premier League sides. Sit back and enjoy.
Arsenal

Arsenal have now accumulated a mammoth number of 21 yellow cards in only their last 4 visits to Old Trafford.
Their record against teams lying in the bottom half of the table is the best in the league. However, against top half oppositions they stand at no.7
Amazingly, Cesc Fabregas was the most wasteful of all Arsenal players on Monday, with a pass success rate of only 65%.

Aston Villa

Aston Villa came over West Brom with a pass success rate of only 63% and had 42% of the ball during the match. They also had only 2 shots on target.
7 is the number for Ashley Young, Stewart Downing and Marc Albrighton. They all have either scored or assisted this many times.
Emile Heskey completed only 9 of his 25 attempted passes last weekend against the Baggies.

Birmingham City

Birmingham have now failed to register a single shot on goal in a match, twice this season.
They have won just 4 of their last 27 Premier League fixtures. Sebastian Larsson was their only player against Wolves who struck a shot goal wards.

 Blackburn Rovers

Blackburn have failed to make a comeback in any game this season so far. If we were to make a table of just first 45 minutes of football, Blackburn would be sitting in 3rd place behind Manchester United and Chelsea.
Surprisingly, Blackburn have conceded more fouls (236) than any other side in the league.

Blackpool

Blackpool have picked up 14 points on their travels which is third best on the league, behind only Manchester Coty and Arsenal.
They have picked up nearly twice as many points in away matches than their home games. And it is better than their away record in the Championship at this time last year.
David Vaughan had a stunning 91% pass complete rate against Stoke City on Saturday.

Bolton Wanderers

Bolton average 2 points a game from their last 7 Premier League matches. At this rate they will finish in top 4.
Fabrice Muamba made only 4 passes, but had a shot and a goal to his name, during his 32 minutes on the pitch.
Bolton are the masters of scoring late (after 85 minutes), as they have done it 5 times in their last 6 home matches.

Chelsea

Nicolas Anelka has not found the back of the net in almost 10 hours of football now.
Chelsea are on their worst run since 1999 as they have picked up only 6 points from 7 premier league matches.
Frank Lampard completed only a single pass after coming from the bench against Manchester United.

Everton

Everton have drawn 2 and lost 2 in their last four home matches in the league.
The 0-0 draw was the first time that they failed to score since September. Jermaine Beckford completed 2 of his 6 attempted passes, was caught offside 3 times and had only one shot on goal, in the 31 minutes he was on the pitch.

Fulham

Fulham made a new record of 10 draws after only 17 premier league matches. Mark Hughes record of 4 wins from his last 27 premier league matches proves he is the king of draws.
Clint Dempsey’s 9 shots were the highest by any other player last weekend.
Liverpool

Roy Hodgson has now won just 1 of his last 27 Premier league away matches. Liverpool have gained only a single point from losing positions this season, which too was back in September.
Fernando Torres completed only 7 passes in 13 attempts, in 90 minutes.
