Which Premier League teams win the most in-game corners?
Taking a corner kick has now become an art form, especially with dead-ball coaches starting to appear. But to make something from a corner kick, you need to win them in the first place.
We are just over halfway through the 2023/24 Premier League season and every team in England’s top-flight other than two clubs have had at least 91 corners. The exceptions being Nottingham Forest who have had 78 and Sheffield United who have had 73.
However, we are not focusing on the total number of corners that teams have had so far in this campaign but more the number of in-game corners the team manage to win.
Let’s take a look at the top 10 Premier League clubs when it comes to having the most in-game corners so far this season, which will hopefully give you some pointers on your corner fuelled bet-builders.
10. Chelsea
While Mauricio Pochettino’s Blues may not win an awful lot of corners compared to the teams at the top end of this chart, they do still get their fair share.
They have won eight or more corners in three of their 21 games so far this season.
The Blues just about edge into the top 10 of the in-game corners league table for 2023/24 so far with 107 in total.
