Comeback Kings
For each team, the longest consecutive run of league matches where they were losing at half-time but came back to win
No team has ever come from behind at half-time to win more than two league matches in a row, and only 11 have even managed that double. The most recent are Aston Villa, who recovered to beat Everton and then Wolves in September 2024. The chart shows every club's best run of half-time comebacks, from Arsenal's festive pair in 2001-02 to Brighton's two late-season rescues in 2024-25.
