The winner of the Premier League is the team that accrues the highest number of points over the course of the 38-game season. Teams earn three points for a win, one point for a draw, and no points for a loss. In the case of two teams having the same total of points for the entire season, the winner of the league is determined by goal differences and, if necessary, number of goals.
