A 1-0 victory over Charlton Athletic on Saturday saw Sheffield Wednesday set a new club record for games unbeaten in the league.
A Liam Palmer goal in the ninth minute means the Owls have now gone 20 games without losing a league game.
The last time Wednesday lost a League One fixture was 4 October, a 2-1 defeat to title rivals Plymouth Argyle.
Since then Wednesday have picked up 14 victories and six draws.
Speaking after the match, Owls boss Darren Moore paid tribute to the players who helped make the run possible.
He said: “High praise and accolades to the players, well done to the boys. Excellent to achieve that in the history of the club and we’re really, really pleased.
“We’ve just got to keep going.”
The result keeps Wednesday at the top of the League One table as they continue their push for a return to the Championship.
A loss for second place Plymouth Argyle means the Owls have extended their lead at the top to three points, and 8 points over Ipswich Town in third, with a game in hand over both.
The win over Charlton means Wednesday’s streak has surpassed the previous run record set in 1961, when they went 19 games without defeat on the way to a second place finish in the First Division.
Having already kept more clean sheets in a season than any previous Wednesday team, Moore’s squad now have a few more history making statistics in their sights, including most points in a season, and most league wins.
Despite the chance to set new records, Moore says his side remain focused on the league.
He said: “We have this record but we’ll put it to one side and keep going.
“We don’t look at anybody else, we focus on us as a group and as long as we’re being competitive and showing our level best then we can’t argue with anything.”
