Comments:

League position: 10th This was Stoke City's first defeat in seven home meetings with Manchester City in the Premier League although the preceding five were all drawn.

Comments:

League position: 2nd Manchester City became the ninth team to reach the landmark of 1,000 Premier League points with this win. City had scored only four goals in their last six Premier League visits to the Britannia Stadium. They have now lost only two of their last 26 away games in the Premier League but have now gone eight league games without keeping a clean sheet for the first time since October to December in 2011. James Milner had now scored in consecutive Premier League games for the first time since April 2010 (for Aston Villa versus Hull City and Birmingham City).
