Saying that, we turn up in record numbers. It’s strange.
Personally, I don’t subscribe to the myth that history has a bearing on present day or future results.
Some teams go decades without beating other teams at particular venues or in particular competitions but that may well be down to the referee disallowing a perfectly good goal for an alleged foul on a goalkeeper or some other unforeseen effect.
Winning or losing runs continue or cease due to many things, including, frustratingly, luck or refereeing incompetence.
