Halloween gives us the single greatest Premier League stat of all time 🎃
Statistics can often be the single most frightening thing in the world of football.
But on this spookiest of days, Opta have provided its readers with, probably, the best Premier League stat of all time.
Just sit and bask in the glory of this from their Twitter account earlier today ...
