Wolverhampton Wanderers underlined their status as second-half kings in Saturday's 1-0 victory at Aston Villa.
Nuno Espirito Santo's side have become experts at turning one point into three after the interval, with Leander Dendoncker scoring the decisive goal this time in the 62nd minute.
They are the only Premier League team this season to have stayed unbeaten in matches that have been level at the break, after 12 such contests.
That is largely thanks to a defence that have now kept four successive clean sheets, the first time Wolves have managed that feat in the top flight since 1981/82.
Meanwhile, at the other end of the pitch, 33 of the team’s 45 Premier League goals this season have come in the second half, a ratio of 73 per cent.
That is the highest percentage of any team in the competition.

All four of Wolves’ goals since their return to action have been scored after the break, largely thanks to Nuno’s impact subs.
In the 2-0 win at West Ham United, Pedro Neto and Adama Traore came off the bench to contribute a goal and an assist respectively in the final 17 minutes.
And at Aston Villa on Saturday, Traore was involved in the build-up to Dendoncker's winner just two minutes after being introduced.
From half-time onwards, Wolves boast a +22 goal difference this season, and in the final half-hour of matches it is +19.
