Man City tied Sunderland’s winning streak record

On 25 November, Manchester City failed to beat Liverpool (1-1) in a clash between the Premier League's top two. Thus, Man City have broken their exciting 23-match winning streak at home in all competitions.
The run started with the very first match of 2023 against Chelsea (3-0) on January 8 and included 15 home matches in the league, 3 in FA Cup and 5 in the Champions League.
Manchester City has just tied the national all-time top-flight record set by Sunderland as long ago as in XIX century.
Sunderland won all last 8 home games of the season 1890-91 (6 in the league, 2 in FA Cup) and then all 15 home games in 1891-92 (13 in the league, 2 in FA Cup).
Thereafter, Sunderland drew the first home game of the season 1892-93 (on 10 September 1892 vs Notts County 2-2); that draw ended their record streak which eventually made 23 wins.
It is generally accepted in the English press that Sunderland's run was not 23, but 24 matches, adding a win in the Сup game on 16 January 1892 vs Notts County (3-0). But that match was declared void following a protest from Notts County. Therefore, it can’t be taken into account (the opponents have met again in a week, also in Sunderland; the replay brought another win 4-0 to the home team, this time legal).
