The Checkatrade Trophy final between  Portsmouth and Sunderland in March had an attendance of 85,021 for the Wembley decider - the second highest crowd in Europe that weekend (Barcelona had 92,795 at the Nou Camp). Portsmouth won the match 5-4 on penalties.

 The Accrington Stanley v Sunderland League 1 match on December 8th 2018 was abandoned after 72 minutes due to a waterlogged pitch. The 5257 crowd was a record for Accrington's Crown Ground with 2604 of them being away fans. Abandoned matches.

In their 10th season of League membership Burton Albion reached their first major cup semi-final. Sadly though they came up against an in-form Manchester City side and lost the first leg of their Carabao Cup (League Cup) semi-final 9-0.
