Liverpool - February to April 2014(Image: John Powell)Liverpool's 2013/14 title challenge was powered by the club's longest winning run in the Premier League era, which in itself brought 38 goals for a free-flowing side fronted by Luis Suarez. Manchester City - April to September 2015(Image: Alex Livesey)City finished as Premier League runners-up to Chelsea despite winning their final six games of the 2014/15 campaign, and they then opened last season with five more. It is the longest ever winning run in the English top flight, equalled only in the second division by Manchester United in 1904-05, Bristol City the following season and Preston in 1950-51.
