Comments:

League position: 16th Swansea City had now scored in nine of their 10 Premier League games in 2016. This was only the second time in this season that the Swans had won consecutive Premier League games. Due to manager Francesco Guidolin being admitted to hospital with a chest infection, assistant Alan Curtis took over for this game. Angel Rangel was booked in the fourth minute of added time in the second half.

Comments:

League position: 18th Norwich City were still the only team yet to keep a clean sheet in a Premier League away game in this season. The Canaries had now lost nine and drawn one of their last ten league and cup games.
