STATS SPECIAL: The Premier League's top 10 conversion rates. Who tops the list?

talkSPORT compiled a top-10 list of the best scoring conversion rates in the Premier League after the first 16 matches of the season.

There is no surprise that league leaders Chelsea sit at the top of the pack with a rate of almost 19% having netted 36 goals from 190 shots.

Behind them, somewhat surprisingly, is Manchester United who are back to third spot on the back of a six-match winning streak while 10th-placed Everton have managed to grab third spot on the conversion table despite having won just five matches.

The remainder of the Premier League's scoring conversion rates table is below:

1. Chelsea - (190 shots, 36 goals, 18.95% conversion, 5.27 shots per goal) 2. Manchester United - (158 shots, 29 goals, 18.35% conversion, 5.54 shots per goal) 3. Everton - (148 shots, 27 goals, 18.24% conversion, 5.48 shots per goal) 4. West Ham United - (161 shots, 27 goals, 16.77% conversion, 5.96 shots per goal) 5. Manchester City - (199 shots, 33 goals, 16.58% conversion, 6.03 shots per goal) 6. Crystal Palace - (121 shots, 19 goals, 15.70% conversion, 6.36 shots per goal) 7. Swansea City - (135 shots, 21 goals, 15.56% conversion, 6.43 shots per goal) 8. Southampton - (171 shots, 25 goals, 14.62% conversion, 6.84 shots per goal) 9.
