5 Premier League records that can be broken this season

Chelsea v Sunderland - Premier League
The Premier League has begun wonderfully this season

#2: Most goals scored in a Premier League season

Arsenal v Tottenham Hotspur - Premier League
Kane scored 29 goals in 31 league games last season

After assists, it's the most goals in a season record that still waits to be broken. The Premier League was played in two formats.

In the starting stages, the league had 42 games per year. But, the count was reduced to 38 later.

In the 38-game league, Alan Shearer, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Luis Suarez are joint-top scorers in a season with 31 goals to their credit.

The record could have been surpassed last year itself. However, owing to Harry Kane's 7-game absence due to injuries, the English hitman managed to score 29 in 31 league games, which is still an incredible stat!

However, Romelu Lukaku is also in contention to break this record. The Belgian scored 25 for Everton last term and has seen a flying start to his Manchester United career after joining them in the summer.

Lukaku has taken advantage of Kane's late form this season. The United striker already has 5 goals and is a joint top-scorer with Manchester City forward Sergio Aguero this season.
