Premier League: Haaland Fails to Score Against Only Two Teams

Man City’s striker Erling Haaland is a terror for every defense, but in the Premier League, there are still two clubs where the tall Norwegian striker has not been able to score.

In the 2022/23 Premier League, on the coronation journey with Man City, Erling Haaland won the title of top scorer with 36 goals. In the 2023/24 season, the Norwegian star continues to explode with 13 goals in 12 rounds. He is currently leading the bomb list, 3 goals more than the second ranked person, Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah (10 goals).

With his formidable goalscoring instincts, Haaland has scored against almost every team he has encountered in the Premier League. However, there are still 2 clubs where the Norwegian star has not been able to score, of course only in this tournament.

As in the Premier League last season, three clubs succeeded in blocking Haaland: Liverpool, Chelsea and Brentford. But last weekend, in round 12 of the Premier League, the Norwegian striker scored a double against Chelsea. Unfortunately, Man City was held by Chelsea with a score of 4-4.

That means Haaland only has two opponents who have never scored in the Premier League: Liverpool and Brentford. In the next round, the Norwegian striker will have a chance when Man City meets Liverpool. As for Brentford, he has to wait until February 2024.
Through the first 12 rounds of the Premier League this season, Haaland added two more “victims”, Burnley and Sheffield Utd. In these two matches, the Norwegian striker scored goals. According to the schedule, in round 16, Man City will meet the other rookie, Luton Town. If Haaland scores, Luton Town will be the 20th team in the Premier League to have a shot scored by the Norwegian striker.

In fact, Erling Haaland’s two favorite “prey” in the Premier League are MU and Fulham. So far, the Norwegian striker has scored 5 times against these two teams in England’s No. 1 playground. Next are West Ham, Wolves and Nottingham Forest (4 times).
