Which Premier League team is the fittest? We take a look at running data to find
out.
Raptors T-shirts ... Tottenhams work rate has
been heralded this season. Last week, Watford boss Quique Sanchez Flores
described Mauricio Pochettinos team as animals, and they comfortably out-ran
Manchester City in their 2-1 win at the Etihad on Sunday.But are Spurs the
fittest team in the league? Using EA Sports Player Performance data, weve taken
a look at a number of key running stats - as well as Premier League teams goals
for and against in the final minutes of matches.While not a fool-proof method of
determining which team is the fittest, the numbers show Tottenham are indeed one
of the hardest-working sides in the division…Distance covered Christian Eriksen
scored an 83rd-minute winner for Spurs at Man City on Sunday Only Bournemouth
(3060.6km) have run further than Tottenham this season (3003.8km). Tottenham
out-ran Man City Spurs covered 121km to Man Citys 112km on Sunday and made 551
high-intensity sprints to Citys 494. Liverpool (fourth in the standings with
2910.2km) and Manchester United (fifth with 2903km) are also among the teams to
have covered the most ground.In contrast, only bottom-of-the-league Aston Villa
(2750.8km) and Stoke (2789.2km) have run less than Manchester City (2795.5km)
and Chelsea (2802.7km) players this season. Distance covered (Kms) - Premier

his Bournemouth team-mates have made the second-most number of sprints this
season When it comes to high-intensity sprints, Tottenham players top the pile.
Pochettinos men have made 13,937 sprints between them this season.
Bournemouth are next on the list with 13,858 sprints.Liverpool (13,793) and
Arsenal (13,683) follow - but West Ham players have made just 11,781, the lowest
total in the Premier League.Surprisingly, Leicester City - renowned for their
high-speed counter-attacking this season - have made the fewest number of
sprints of the current top four (12,557). Total sprints - Premier League Rank

against Leicester secured victory for Arsenal Man City may not cover as much
distance as most Premier League teams, but they have been the best this season
at scoring late goals. Theyve found the net 12 times from the 80th minute
onwards this season.However, Tottenham - despite their running exertions - have
still been able to score 10 times in the final 10 minutes of Premier League
matches. Only two teams can better that.At the other end of the scale, Aston
Villa have managed just one late goal so far this season and Manchester United -
so famous under former boss Sir Alex Ferguson for scoring crucial late goals -
have netted just four. Goals scored from 80mins - Premier League Rank Team Goals

this season Norwich have conceded the most goals late on in Premier League games
this season, giving away 10 goals from the 80-minute mark. Aston Villa, Crystal
Palace and Liverpool have also proven to be susceptible to conceding late goals,
having each conceded nine times during that period.Of the top four, Man City
have the best record in the final 10 minutes, conceding just four times,
although Tottenham and Arsenal - who have each conceded five during that period
- have also regularly kept their concentration late on. Goals conceded from
