Liverpool Holds The Distinction Of Being The Fastest Team In The Current Premier League Season

Liverpool leads the Premier League and their performance statistics validate their position. They’re the top-ranking team in terms of attack speed, covering 1.96 meters per second in the 2023-2024 campaign.

Everton and West Ham share second place with a speed of 1.94 meters per second, while Nottingham Forest follows closely in third with 1.93 meters per second.

Despite sitting at 18th in the league, Luton Town impressively secures fourth place with a speed of 1.92 meters per second.

Manchester United closely follows Liverpool with a speed of 1.89 meters per second, while Bournemouth is slightly behind at 1.87 meters per second.

Crystal Palace and Sheffield United are on par with a speed of 1.80 meters per second, while Brentford positions itself in the middle of the rankings at 1.79 meters per second.

Aston Villa has maintained an average of 1.74 meters per second, whereas injury-stricken Tottenham Hotspur registers at 1.72 meters per second. Following them, Fulham (1.69), Newcastle United (1.68), Chelsea (1.67), and Wolverhampton Wanderers take their places on the list of speeds.

Brighton and Hove Albion evade the bottom tier by recording a speed of 1.59 meters per second for the 2023-2024 campaign.

Surprisingly, both Arsenal and Manchester City, expected title challengers, find themselves in the bottom three for speed. Arsenal ranks third from the bottom at 1.54 meters per second, while Manchester City trails at 1.26 meters per second, with Burnley situated between them at 1.45 meters per second.

Arsenal appeared poised for a title win last season but stumbled in the final months, allowing City to clinch the league as the first part of their Treble win. To prevent a similar occurrence, the Gunners aim to bolster their team during the January transfer window, with fans urging Mikel Arteta to acquire a striker.

Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola’s team grapples with maintaining pace this season, suffering losses against teams like Aston Villa and drawing with Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham, and Palace.

Conversely, Liverpool secured an impressive win over Arsenal in the cup, following a 1-1 draw at Anfield in the Premier League, ensuring their competitive edge across four different competitions.
