Top 10 longest unbeaten streaks in the English Premier League and how they ended

#8 (Joint sixth) Manchester United (2010-11) - 29 matches

Manchester United won their 12th Premier League title in 2011.

Manchester United are the most successful club in the history of the English Premier League, so it is only natural that they feature heavily in our list. In their second entry in this list, we take a look at their 2010-11 campaign, which was the second occasion when the Red Devils had gone 29 matches unbeaten in the top-flight.

That season United got off to a flying start and managed to retain their unbeaten status in league fixtures well until the final quarter of the campaign had kicked in. Including five games from the previous campaign, their run stretched to a total of 29 games without a loss.

The defeat that stopped them from becoming just the fifth team ever in the Premier League to remain undefeated for 30 consecutive games came against an unlikely opposition in Wolverhampton Wanderers on 5 February 2011. Bottom-placed Wolves produced a comeback in the first half of the game to win it 2-1 and squash the hopes of Sir Alex Ferguson to usurp the record of his 1999 treble winners.
