Comments:

League position: 17th Burnley avoided failing to win any of their opening eight league games in a season for the first time since 2014-15 in the Premier League. The Clarets had led for ten minutes in their games so far in this Premier League season, prior to this game. They ended a run of 324 playing minutes in the division without scoring. With Chris Wood's goal, all teams in the top four divisions had now scored in a home league game in the 2020-21 season.

Comments:

League position: 11th Crystal Palace had now drawn two of their last 24 games in the Premier League (won eight, lost 14). Since the start of the 2014-15 season when Wilfried Zaha rejoined the Eagles, they had now lost 20 of their 28 games in the Premier League when he was not in the team (won seven). This Palace's 50th defeat in the Premier League under manager Roy Hodgson.
