The Lucky Charms: Premier League Stars Who Never Lost After Scoring

September 5, 2025 Kris Isaksen

Scoring a goal usually helps your team—but for a rare few, it always leads to something positive. These Premier League stars have never lost a game when they've found the back of the net, turning every goal into a win or at least a draw. Let’s count down the most prolific names on this elite list, starting from the bottom.

Seamus Coleman – 22 Games Scored In (W17 D5)

The Everton captain has quietly built a reputation as a reliable presence both defensively and in attack. Remarkably, in all 22 Premier League games in which he’s scored, Coleman has never tasted defeat.

Marcos Alonso – 23 Games Scored In (W17 D6)

Known for his attacking instincts as a left-back, Alonso’s goals have often come at crucial moments. Across 23 matches where he scored, his teams have walked away unbeaten every single time.

Georginio Wijnaldum – 23 Games Scored In (W19 D4)

Wijnaldum had a knack for popping up in big games, and the results back that up. Each of the 23 Premier League matches he scored in ended in either a win or a draw for his side.

Antonio Valencia – 23 Games Scored In (W22 D1)

Valencia was more than just a powerful runner on the flank—his goals always made an impact. In 23 matches where he netted, his teams won 22 and drew just one.

Pedro – 27 Games Scored In (W26 D1)

The former Chelsea winger was clinical when it counted. In 27 Premier League matches with his name on the scoresheet, Chelsea never lost and won all but one.

Salomon Kalou – 32 Games Scored In (W29 D3)

Kalou was a steady contributor during Chelsea’s dominant years under Mourinho. Though he wasn’t a regular scorer, when he did strike, Chelsea were nearly always guaranteed points.

Gabriel Martinelli – 37 Games Scored In (W30 D7)

Often overshadowed by teammates, Martinelli’s influence is undeniable. Arsenal have never lost in the 37 league games he’s scored in—a testament to his impact on the pitch.

Darius Vassell – 46 Games Scored In (W36 D10)

Across 265 Premier League appearances, Vassell's 46 scoring matches all ended without defeat. His time at Aston Villa and Manchester City cemented his status as a lucky charm, even if England fans remember him more for a painful Euro 2004 penalty miss.

Diogo Jota – 52 Games Scored In (W43 D9)

Jota's time at Wolves and Liverpool was marked by consistency—especially when scoring. Every time he got on the scoresheet in 52 games, his team avoided defeat, including under two different Liverpool managers.

James Milner – 55 Games Scored In (W44 D11)

Milner is the definition of a Premier League veteran, having scored for six different clubs. Across 55 scoring appearances, his teams never lost, proving his goals—though rare—were always valuable.

Gabriel Jesus – 62 Games Scored In (W57 D5)

Topping the list is Gabriel Jesus, whose 62 scoring appearances have never ended in defeat. With a win rate of nearly 92% in those games, the Brazilian has carried that streak from Manchester City to Arsenal, making him the Premier League’s ultimate good-luck scorer.
