Manchester City set a new Premier League-record winning run of 15 games by beating Swansea 4-0 at the Liberty Stadium on Wednesday evening.
Here, Press Association Sport breaks down the games and the statistics involved in their streak, which exceeds Arsenal's in 2002.
Bournemouth 1 Manchester City 2, August 26
Raheem Sterling's late goal proved decisive after Gabriel Jesus cancelled out Charlie Daniels' stunner. The wild celebrations earned Sterling a second yellow card, but his late contributions were to become a recurring theme.
Manchester City 5 Liverpool 0, September 9
Sergio Aguero put City ahead before Liverpool's Sadio Mane was sent off for catching goalkeeper Ederson with a high boot and Jesus and Leroy Sane scored twice apiece.
Watford 0 Manchester City 6, September 16
Aguero's hat-trick, goals from Jesus and Nicolas Otamendi and a late Sterling penalty helped City go one better the following week.
Manchester City 5 Crystal Palace 0, September 23
Struggling Palace held out almost until half-time but Sane's goal opened the floodgates. Sterling, twice, Aguero and Fabian Delph scored in the second period.
Chelsea 0 Manchester City 1, September 30
Chelsea at least slowed City's free-scoring form but they were beaten by a 67th-minute goal from their former player Kevin De Bruyne.
Manchester City 7 Stoke 2, October 14
Pep Guardiola's side returned from the international break with a bang. They were three up inside half an hour through Jesus, Sterling and David Silva and, although Mame Diouf and a Kyle Walker own goal gave Stoke hope, Jesus' second settled City and Fernandinho, Sane and Bernardo Silva added to the score.
Manchester City 3 Burnley 0, October 21
Aguero's penalty and goals in the final 20 minutes from Otamendi and Sane kept the run going.
West Brom 2 Manchester City 3, October 28
Sane's goal was cancelled out by Jay Rodriguez but Fernandinho and Sterling restored City's lead and Matt Phillips' late goal was mere consolation.
Manchester City 3 Arsenal 1, November 5
De Bruyne and an Aguero penalty put City in control and, although Alexandre Lacazette pulled one back, Jesus made the game safe.

The damage was done in a five-minute period straddling half-time, with Jesus and De Bruyne on the scoresheet.
Huddersfield 1 Manchester City 2, November 26

Manchester City 2 Southampton 1, November 29
Sterling curled home a brilliant winner deep in stoppage time after De Bruyne's opener was cancelled out by Oriol Romeu.

Manchester United 1 Manchester City 2, December 10
City were deserving derby winners as Otamendi was gifted the winner after David Silva's opener was cancelled out by Marcus Rashford.

:: In their four games in September they scored 17 without reply.
:: Ten different players have scored for City during their winning run, with all bar Delph and Bernardo Silva scoring multiple goals – even defender Otamendi has four.

:: Oleksandr Zinchenko's substitute appearance against Swansea means Guardiola has used 21 different players in the run. De Bruyne and Ederson have started every game.
