Middlesbrough 8-1 Manchester City (May 11, 2008): Believe it or not, there was once a time when it was Manchester City shipping eight goals in a Premier League match. Alfonso Alves' best moment in a Middlesbrough shirt came in this match as the Brazil international netted a hat-trick. Getty Images

Manchester United 9-0 Southampton (February 2, 2021): Manchester United made their third, and most recent entry, to this list by putting nine past nine-man Southampton - the second such defeat for the Saints in as many seasons. Alexandre Jankewitz's second-minute red card on his Premier League debut set the tone before Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Marcus Rashford, Edinson Cavani and Jan Bednarek's own goal made it 4-0 before half-time. Anthony Martial came off the bench to score twice in the second half, while Scott McTominay, Bruno Fernandes and Daniel James also netted either side of Bednarek's late dismissal. PA

Southampton 0-9 Leicester City (October 25, 2019): Leicester equalled Manchester United's 24-year-old Premier League record with a nine-goal thrashing away to Southampton. Ayoze Perez and Jamie Vardy both hit hat-tricks, with Vardy sealing his treble with a penalty in the fourth minute of added time. Getty Images

Manchester City 8-0 Watford (September 21, 2019): Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster said he feared City could hit "double figures" in the first half, such was the relentless pace City set in the opening 18 minutes when they were already 5-0 up at the Etihad. The writing was on the wall after 60 seconds, with David Silva opening. It was another Silva - Bernardo - who grabbed the headlines though with a hat-trick. AFP

Newcastle United beat Sheffield United 8-0 at Bramall Lane on September 24, 2023. Newcastle had eight goalscorers - a league record - with Anthony Gordon here grabbing the fifth goal. Getty

Manchester United 9-0 Ipswich Town (March 4, 1995): Andy Cole (with ball) scored five goals as Manchester United put Ipswich Town to the sword 9-0 at Old Trafford. Unsurprisingly, Ipswich were relegated that season. United lost out on the Premier League title to Blackburn Rovers by a point. Getty Images

Tottenham Hotspur 9-1 Wigan (November 22, 2009): Jermain Defoe, right, bagged a seven-minute hat-trick before adding two more late on for a personal haul of five against a hapless Wigan at White Hart Lane. Unlike Ipswich, the only other team in Premier League history to ship nine goals in a single match, Wigan finished a respectable 11th in the table. Getty Images

Newcastle United 8-0 Sheffield Wednesday (September 19, 1999): Bobby Robson could not have got his Newcastle tenure off to a better start. The former England manager, who used to watch his team from the terraces, was in the dugout as Newcastle battered Sheffield Wednesday at St James' Park. Alan Shearer joined the five-goals-in-one-game club while Gary Speed, right, rounded off the scoring. Getty Images

Chelsea 8-0 Wigan (May 9, 2010): Chelsea and Wigan feature prominently on this list, although for very different reasons. A rampant Chelsea put eight past the Lactics with Nicolas Anelka, centre, netting a brace. Chelsea went on to be crowned champions scoring 103 goals in the process. Again, Wigan survived the drop despite their Stamford Bridge mauling. Getty Images

Chelsea 8-0 Aston Villa (December 23, 2012): Aston Villa endured a torrid afternoon as Chelsea recorded their second 8-0 result in the Premier League. Brazilian midfielder Ramires scored his team's fifth goal of the game. Getty Images

Southampton 8-0 Sunderland (October 18, 2014): Sunderland's day was already off to a bad start when Santiago Vergini put through his own net after 12 minutes. Sunderland had long thrown in the towel by the time Sadio Mane, centre, had finished the scoring on 86 minutes. Getty Images

Nottingham Forest 1-8 Manchester United (February 6, 1999): United led 2-1 after only seven minutes courtesy of goals from Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole. The match will always be remembered for the standout cameo of United substitute Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, though, who bagged four goals in the final 10 minutes. Getty Images
