Premier League stats: Son Heung-min and Harry Kane star in entertaining weekend

End-to-end games, edge-of-your-seat entertainment and several eye-catching results - as we all continue to settle in to another Premier League season along came a weekend boasting the highest number of goals per game in the competition's history.

Eight matches yielded 39 goals across a marvellously chaotic weekend, as three separate Premier League games witnessed seven goals for just the third time ever.

The 21 goals scored on Saturday alone set a record for the most on a single day (featuring up to four matches) in the competition's history.

And just when the excitement appeared to be coming to an end, Leicester City's fourth and final goal against Burnley on Sunday also secured this weekend's round of games a place in the top 10 all-time highest scoring Premier League weekends.
