• Leicester City;
• and Blackburn Rovers.

The latter are a team that from time to time has lengthy spells in the Championship, which is the second level of English football. Of course, the 1xBet website also features all matches from this excellent competition too.

In fact, in the 1980s and 2010s it was in serious danger of being relegated to League One, the third level of English football. As such, it is even more impressive to think that in the 1994-95 Premier League season, they were the champions.

A spectacular campaign with an incredible ending

Blackburn began their 1994-95 EPL with a 1-1 draw against Southampton. Their first defeat came in the eighth matchday. Prior to that match, they had obtained five victories and two draws. On the 11th matchday they lost to Manchester United. Blackburn would fight for the title point by point with the Red Devils.

Probably the main reason why the team won that EPL season was because after losing with United, the team would enjoy a 12-match undefeated streak. During that period they obtained 11 victories and 1 draw. This streak was cut by, once again, Manchester United.

The team almost lost the Premier League title in the very last matchday. They lost this match against Liverpool. At the same time Manchester United was playing with West Ham. If the Red Devils would have defeated the Hammers, they would have been the champions. However, they only obtained a draw.

Eventually, Blackburn ended the season with 89 points, while Manchester United had 88. Of course, both teams can be wagered at the 1xBet website too.
