Comments:

League position: 17th Leeds United had now conceded 72 goals so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team in the division. The Whites had now lost eight of their 17 home games in the Premier League in 2021-22; they had now only lost more in a season in the division in 2002-03 (nine). They had now equalled a competition record of 94 yellow cards being shown to their players in a season in the Premier League; also Sunderland in 2014-15. Liam Cooper was originally named in the starting line-up before suffering an injury in the pre-match warm-up. Mateusz Klich was promoted to the starting XI.

Comments:

League position: 1st Manchester City had now kept clean sheets in five consecutive away league games for the first time in their history. City had now scored 44 goals in the second-half of their games so far in this Premier League season; the most in division except for Liverpool (45). Aged 36 years and 361 days, Fernandino became their oldest goalscorer in the Premier League; previously Frank Lampard against Southampton on 24 May 2015 (36 years and 338 days).
