Chelsea's key edge over Liverpool and Man City as Harry Kane fails to match Thomas Tuchel ace

Chelsea have been the Premier League's most efficient finishers this season ahead of the two teams challenging for the title in Liverpool and Manchester City. The Reds take second spot, while Manchester City are all the way down in seventh despite their 68 goals.

However, while the Blues top this table, they have recorded just 57 goals from 397 shots (14.36%) in comparison to Liverpool's 75 from 555 (13.51%) and City's 68 from 536 (12.69%). West Ham and Leicester are the only other two teams to have conversion rate above 13%, while Norwich record a conversion rate of just 6.34% according to the latest data.

Perhaps more surprisingly Romelu Lukaku (17.24%) outperforms both Hary Kane (12.77%) and Cristiano Ronaldo (13.79%), and it is Jorginho that leads the way in the league thanks to his six goals in just 14 shots (42.86%), possibly with just a fraction of help from his penalty taking duties.
