  • Bobby Pointon, aged 19, was the first teenager to score a league goal for Bradford City since Kian Scales against Colchester United in March 2021 (18), and first to do so at home since Reece Staunton in November 2020 (18).
  • Since 2004, Mansfield Town this season is just the fifth instance of a team avoiding defeat in their first 12 matches of a season in the competition, after Wycombe Wanderers in 2005/06 (first 21), Wycombe in 2008/09 (18), Carlisle United in 2016/17 (15) and Forest Green Rovers in 2018/19 (12).
  • Salford City’s Matt Smith scored the 100th league goal of his EFL career, a quarter of which have come with the Ammies (25), his most with a single side (QPR – 21, Millwall – 17, Leeds United – 12, Fulham – 9, Oldham Athletic – 9, Bristol City – 7, Macclesfield Town – 1).
  • In their 4-0 win over Walsall, Sutton United scored four first-half goals in a single match in League Two for the very first time. Indeed, it was the first time that Walsall conceded four goals in the first half of a league match since September 2017 against Rotherham United.
