Comments:

League position: 19th Despite this victory, Sunderland's win against Everton on the same evening confirmed Norwich City's relegation to the League Championship. This was the fourth time they had been relegated from the Premier League. Only Crystal Palace had been relegated from the division as often. The last time the Canaries scored four goals in a Premier League win was in a 4-0 success against West Bromwich Albion on 12 May 2013. City had lost all of their last four Premier League games without scoring.

Comments:

League position: 13th Watford had now lost five of their last six away games in the Premier League. Only eight different players had now scored for the Hornets in the Premier League in this season; fewer than at any other club.
