1994: Norwich City 4-5 Southampton

Matt Le Tissier scored a hat-trick and assisted another goal to give Southampton a huge win in their fight against relegation. 

Saints, who were in the relegation zone and without a win in seven matches, had trailed to their 11th-placed opponents 3-1 and 4-3 at Carrow Road.

But after Le Tissier's third goal made it 4-4, he crossed for Kenneth Monkou to score the winner in the 90th minute. 

Southampton went on to win two of their next three matches as they secured PL safety by one point. 

1997: Coventry City 3-1 Chelsea

After arriving at Highfield Road without their away kit, Chelsea had to wear Coventry City's second strip and were on the end of a 3-1 defeat. 

Paul Hughes had opened the scoring for Chelsea in the colours of red and black.

But Coventry, nicknamed "The Sky Blues", scored three times in the second half of a bizarre match through Dion Dublin, Paul Williams and Noel Whelan.
