🚨 POINTLESS STAT OF THE DAY #134 ⚽ PREMIER LEAGUE FIXTURES THAT HAVE NEVER HAPPENED - SOME REAL SURPRISES!! There have now been 51 different clubs in Premier League history and yet there are still some fixtures that have NEVER happened. The rule is simple: Both clubs have played in the Premier League but their Premier League spells have never overlapped. So STATTY HQ started looking at the most ridiculous examples. We've ranked them by the combined number of Premier League seasons played by the two clubs. Here are the top ones we've found: 🥇 34 seasons ❓ / ❓WHO ARE THE TEAMS? 🥈 28 seasons Fulham / Sheffield Wednesday 🥈 28 seasons Fulham / Wimbledon 🥈 28 seasons Blackburn / Brighton 🥈 28 seasons Blackburn / Bournemouth 27 Leeds / Stoke 26 Leicester / Wigan 26 Crystal Palace / Wigan 25 Leeds / Wigan 25 Brighton / Middlesbrough 24 Blackburn / Brentford 24 Leeds / Swansea 24 Sheffield United / Sunderland 23 Bolton / Brighton 23 Bolton / Bournemouth 23 Nottingham Forest / West Brom 23 Coventry / West Brom 22 Coventry / Wolves 21 Sheffield Wednesday / West Brom 21 West Brom / Wimbledon 21 Brentford / Middlesbrough 20 Nottingham Forest / Stoke 20 Coventry / Stoke 20 Burnley / Coventry 20 Sheffield Wednesday / Wolves 20 Wimbledon / Wolves 20 Ipswich / West Brom 20 Derby / West Brom Some brilliant fixtures and there are loads more. Do you have a favourite? And here's another little rabbit hole... 🆕 Coventry v Hull happened for the first time in the Premier League this season where as Sunderland played Brentford and Brighton for the first time last season. All three pairings had existed outside the Premier League and they'd just never managed to be in it together. And here's the really strange one... Newcastle United and West Ham have missed just a few seasons between them but despite that... NEITHER CLUB HAS EVER MISSED PLAYING A SINGLE OTHER CLUB THAT HAS APPEARED IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE. They have both played all 50 of the other clubs. Can you get the teams in 1st place? Use this information wisely. 🤓
