A series of head-turning statistics have come to the fore on Saturday evening, aptly highlighting the impressive nature of Brighton & Hove Albion’s win over Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Brighton, of course, have taken their place front and centre in the English media headlines tonight.
This comes after the Seagulls, fresh off a pair of successive defeats over the course of the last week, bounced back in the most remarkable of fashion.
After welcoming the aforementioned Wolves to the Amex Stadium, Roberto De Zerbi’s troops ran riot, en route to an eventual 6-0 triumph.
All of Deniz Undav, Pascal Groß and Danny Welbeck were at the double, as Brighton climbed back up to 8th in the Premier League table.
PICK THAT OUT, PASCAL GROß! 🚀

On the back of the action coming to a close on England’s south coast, it should therefore come as little surprise to hear that Saturday’s victors have secured for themselves not one, but two new all-time club benchmarks.

✅ All-time club record for most league points in a single season equalled
