United top the list...

The Premier League all-time table: Liverpool ahead of Chelsea…

The Premier League has been with us for 33 years, which amounts to a lot of football being played over the past three decades – but which sides have the best record in the competition?

There have been six ever-presents (Arsenal, Chelsea, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham) while some teams have only spent one season in the Premier League sun.

But who tops the all-time table in the competition? Despite their relative struggles over recent years, it’s no surprise to see United well clear ahead of everybody else – winning 13 league titles will generally set you ahead of your rivals.

Since the Premier League rebrand, the Red Devils have accumulated a total of 2,543 points, which is over 150 more points than anyone else in the competition’s history.

Arsenal are now back comfortably in second, after a period in which they were overhauled by Chelsea. And after brefily being overtaken by Chelsea themselves, Liverpool have since returned to third in the all-time standings.

Manchester City are zooming up the standings too, despite playing in the Football League for five seasons during the late 90s and early 2000s, and lie in sixth place.

The highest team currently not playing in the Premier League are 1995 title winners Blackburn Rovers, who are currently 12th in the all-time standings, above current Premier League stalwarts like Fulham, Wolves and Crystal Palace.

Brentford are the lowest-ranked side who are currently playing in the top flight as they currently sit 41st in the all-time standings with 200 points to their name in 152 matches.

Of the newly promoted clubs who will be joining the league in 2025-26, Burnely are 31st in the table, Sunderland 18th and Leeds United sit in 14th.

Luton Town sit at the bottom of the all-time standings as a result of only spending one season in the top flight since 1992.

In their only Premier League campaign, Luton accumulated 26 points, which is fewer than Swindon, Barnsley and Blackpool managed in their solitary Premier League campaign.
