Most goals scored in a Premier League match record as Arsenal thrash Sheffield United

With every chance that the Premier League is decided on goal difference, Arsenal have shown no sign of slowing down against Sheffield United. After both Manchester City and Liverpool picked up wins over the weekend, three points will keep the Gunners' title dreams alive.

Martin Odegaard broke the deadlock at Bramall Lane inside five minutes. Mikel Arteta's side then doubled their lead shortly before the quarter of an hour mark after an own goal from Jayden Bogle.

Gabriel Martinelli chipped in just minutes later. With the floodgates open, Kai Havertz and Declan Rice jotted their names down on the scoresheet too.

Though it took almost 15 minutes, Ben White scored Arsenal's first of the second half, extending their lead to six – yes, six goals. With a spot in the history books at stake, football.london has taken a look at the highest-scoring Premier League matches of all time.

Benjani opened the scoring at Fratton Park inside the opening 10 minutes before going on to complete his hat-trick shortly after the hour mark. Two goals in stoppage time – both of which were scored by the home side, though one was a penalty and the other was an own goal – made this game in the highest-scoring match in Premier League history.
