ThePremier League Goal of the Month is an association football award that recognises the player who is deemed to have scored the bestPremier League goal each month of the season from August to April. The winner is chosen by a combination of an online public vote, which contributes to 10% of the final tally, and a panel of experts.[1]
At the end of the season, the nine monthly winners are put forward for thePremier League Goal of the Season, which is chosen using the same method, although the 2016–17 award featured, and indeed was won by, a goal from May which did not go to a vote.[2]
The award was introduced for the2016–17 season as theBudweiser Goal of the Month by its sponsored name for eight seasons; since the2024–25 season it has been known as theGuinness Goal of the Month.
The first recipient of the award wasMiddlesbrough strikerCristhian Stuani for his away goal againstSunderland.Pedro was the first player to have won the award multiple times, whileAndros Townsend was the first player to have won it three times, and the first to achieve it with different clubs. Thanks toMiguel Almirón (April 2022) andAllan Saint-Maximin (August 2022),Newcastle United became first club to have consecutive winners, whileWolverhampton Wanderers was the first to do it in the same season, withJonny andMatheus Nunes winningMarch andApril 2023 awards respectively.
