David Raya in elite company among Premier League goalkeepers with the best clean sheet percentage
The Spaniard’s superb save from Matues Fernandes denied West Ham an opening goal, and allowed Arsenal to go on and claim three precious points.
With the midfielder in one-against-one, Raya stood firm to save in what could be a defining moment in Arsenal’s season.
The aforementioned Reina is third on the list, with 47%, just behind ex-Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar.
Van der Sar memorably claimed a record-breaking 14 consecutive clean sheets for the Red Devils in 2008/09, setting a new world record after going 1,311 minutes without conceding in the league.
Cech’s record-breaking feats at Chelsea include the most clean sheets in a Premier League season (24), set in 2004/05. His 202 career clean sheets in the division is also a Premier League record.

- Edwin van der Sar – Manchester United (48.4%)
