The 10 Best Attacking Partnerships in the Premier League This Season

Daniel Sturridge and Luiz Suarez of Liverpool
After their 3-1 victory over Sunderland, Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers hailed Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge as being up there with the best in the country.

But are they the very best attacking partnership that the Premier League has to offer right now?

Going on goals alone, Suarez and Sturridge are currently the most effective pair of strikers in the league with seven goals between them, despite the fact that Suarez has only played one game.

Sturridge had to provide the goals while Suarez was sidelined, but the duo looked sharp on the Uruguayan's return.

Wayne Rooney and Robin Van Persie are close behind with six goals between them.

Ozil and Giroud of Arsenal


Olivier Giroud and Mesut Ozil have four goals between them (all coming from Giroud), but Mesut Ozil has more assists than any other player in the Premier League, setting up three goals.

Aaron Ramsey has also chipped in with four goals from midfield, making Arsenal one of the most effective attacking forces in the league.

Here’s our picks for the ten best attacking partnerships in the Premier League so far this season:

  1. Suarez and Sturridge of Liverpool FC
  2. Rooney and Van Persie of Manchester United
  3. Ozil and Giroud of Arsenal FC
  4. Soldado and Eriksen of Tottenham Hotspurs
  5. Benteke and Agbonlahor of Aston Villa
  6. Aguero and Negredo of Manchester City
