Logically, scoring a
goal helps your team win. But who are the players that have taken
that to the extreme and have never lost a Premier
League game while netting?
Here’s the list of the players who have scored in the most
individual Premier League games without losing a single one of
them:
Gabriel Jesus: 63
Games Scored In (W58 D5)
James Milner: 55 Games Scored In (W44 D11)
Diogo Jota: 52 Games Scored In (W43 D9)
Darius Vassell: 46 Games Scored In (W36 D10)
Gabriel Martinelli: 38 Games Scored In (W30
D8)
Salomon Kalou: 32 Games Scored In (W29 D3)
Oyvind Leonhardsen: 28 Games Scored In (W21
D7)
Pedro: 27 Games Scored In (W26 D1)
Antonio Valencia: 23 Games Scored In (W22
D1)
Georginio Wijnaldum: 23 Games Scored In (W19
D4)
Marcos Alonso: 23 Games Scored In (W17 D6)
Seamus Coleman: 22 Games Scored In (W17 D5)
Gabriel
Jesus
63 Games
Scored In – W58 D5
Aside from his four Premier League winners’ medals, Gabriel
Jesus is the owner of another enviable league record. His 77
Premier League goals have come in 63 different matches, but the
real kicker? In every single one of the 63 games he’s scored in,
his side have never lost.
Of course, it helps that Jesus has exclusively played in
dominant sides. That’s why he’s managed to speed up this list so
quickly, despite playing just 233 matches in the competition. The
majority of those (159) have been for Manchester
City who Jesus joined in the summer of 2016-17 – the same
window that saw Pep Guardiola arrive.
Now he’s in north London having moved to Arsenal in the summer
of 2022-23.
At present, Jesus has a 92.1% win rate in games he’s scored in.
Only two players to have scored in 20+ games without losing can
better that feat (Pedro 96.3% and Antonio Valencia 95.7%).
James
Milner
55 Games
Scored In – W44 D11
James Milner always appears in these lists, doesn’t he? When
he’s not appearing in the list for the youngest
Premier League scorers of all-time, or the oldest
Premier League scorers ever, or those who’ve made
the most appearances, he appears in ones like this.
Milner has scored in 55 games across his Premier League career
in spells at Leeds United,
Newcastle,
Aston
Villa, Manchester City, Liverpool and
Brighton. Only Jesus has scored in more games without losing a
single one of them.
Diogo
Jota
52 Games
Scored In – W43 D9
The late Diogo Jota scored in 52 Premier League games without
losing. Overall, the Portuguese forward scored in 34 different
league games under Jürgen Klopp without defeat and added a further
six under Arne Slot.
His time on Merseyside got off to a flying start, with Jota not
only becoming the first player since Robbie Fowler to score as many
as seven goals in his first 10 appearances, but the first Liverpool
player to score in each of his first four Premier League home
games.
Jota also scored in 12 different matches for Wolves
during his time at Molineux and wasn’t on the losing side with them
either.
Darius
Vassell
46 Games
Scored In – W36 D10
Darius Vassell scored 52 Premier League goals across 265
appearances for Aston Villa and Manchester City. Those goals came
in 46 games and Vassell remained unbeaten in every single one.
Vassell did find himself on the losing side after scoring for
Leicester
City in their 3-2 loss to Nottingham Forest in April 2011, but
thankfully for him this came in the Championship and not the top
flight. His place on this list is therefore safe.
Of course, you don’t have to lose a game for footballing
heartbreak to find you as Vassell knows all too well. After
England’s 2-2 draw against Portugal in the quarter-finals of Euro
2004, Vassell missed England’s last spot-kick in the penalty
shootout, allowing Portugal’s goalkeeper Ricardo to score the
winner.
Rather than that painful memory, perhaps we ought to remember
Vassell more fondly for being Villa and City’s lucky charm over a
large chunk of the noughties.
Gabriel
Martinelli
38 Games
Scored In – W30 D8
You could argue that Gabriel Martinelli is one of the less appreciated players in
the current Arsenal side. However, like compatriot and teammate
Gabriel Jesus, when Martinelli does score, it means Arsenal are
almost certainly taking something from the game.
His late goal in the 1-1 draw at home to Manchester City in
September 2025 was his 41st Premier League strike for the club in
his 165th game, but it was also the 38th time he has scored in a
league game for Arsenal. Of those, they have won 30, drawn eight
and lost zero.
Salomon
Kalou
32 Games
Scored In – W29 D3
Salomon Kalou is another striker blessed to have played in a
dominant team during his Premier League days. Although he won just
one Premier League title with Chelsea over his
six-year career in west London, he was still part of the team that
won both the FA Cup and League Cup in 2006-07 as well as finishing
second in the Premier League, and part of the side that finished
second, third, first and second in the four subsequent seasons.
Kalou – who had been brought to the club by José Mourinho after
impressing with Feyenoord in the Eredivisie – only hit double
figures for league goals in one season (2010-11), but whenever he
scored, Chelsea were safe. He notched in 32 games for the Blues,
winning 29 of those and drawing three.
