Comments:

League position: 18th Huddersfield Town had now scored one goal in their last eight home games in all competitions. The Terriers had now failed to score in 23 of their 41 games in the Premier League; more than any other team since the start of the previous season. They avoided losing their opening three games of a league season for the first time since 1992-93 (in League Division 2) and equalling the club record of four consecutive home defeats in the top division which has stood since 1935.

Comments:

League position: 14th Cardiff City had now failed to score in their first three games of this Premier League season. The last City player to score in the Premier League remained as Peter Whittingham against Stoke City on 19 April 2014. The Bluebirds had now won two of their 21 away games in the Premier League (lost 14) and failed to score in 13 of them. Former Huddersfield Town manager Neil Warnock had now won one of his last 15 games in the Premier League and none of the last nine.
