10 of the last 11 Premier League winners have scored the most goals in the league that season (Chelsea the only side in the last decade to have bucked this trend - incredibly conceding only 15 goals, losing just 1 game and amassing 95 points on their way to the 2004/05 league title).
Conversely, only 5 of the last 11 winners have possessed the best defensive record.
This is the stat to watch out for this season in my opinion. Forget the teams that can lock down games and consistently eek out victories by single goal margins, attacking potency is by far the most reliable predictor of success in the league.
