Reading the numbers

Fulham top the Premier League clean sheets table with 10 clean sheets, level with Sunderland. Chelsea follow on 9, so the gap from first to third is 1 clean sheets.

The table lists 20 clubs and 125 clean sheets in total. The top ten account for 65% of that output, while the median entry sits on 6 clean sheets. No club manages more than one entry in the top ten, a sign of how evenly the work is spread.

Clean sheets are counted by team, not by goalkeeper, because a shut-out is a defensive unit achievement: the back four, the screening midfielder and the keeper all contribute. A high total usually points to a side that defends its own box well and controls the tempo of games; a low total can hide a good keeper behind a leaky structure, which is why save numbers matter alongside this table.

When comparing entries, remember that opportunity drives output. A club that has played more matches will naturally sit higher, so check the matches played column on the league table before drawing conclusions. Every figure on this page is recalculated after each round, so the order you see is the order after the most recent matchday in the Premier League.
