Comments:

League position: 19th Newcastle United had now kept a clean sheet in two home games in the Premier League since the start of 2020-21 season. 101 goals had now been scored in the Toon's 33 games in the Premier League in 2021 (40 for, 61 against). They had now failed to win in their opening ten games of a top division for the third time; also 1898-99 in League Division One and 2018-19 in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 1st Reece James was now Chelsea's leading scorer after ten games of this Premier League season with four goals. The Blues had now kept a clean sheet in 19 of their last 31 games in the Premier League. Jorginho became the first player to score ten consecutive goals in the Premier League all from penalties.
