Comments:

League position: 20th Watford remained without a win in their opening eight games of this Premier League season (lost five); their longest run without a win from the start of a league season since 2006-07 (ten in the Premier League). The Hornets had now failed to score in six of their last ten games in the Premier League. They avoided equalling their club record of 20 games in the top division without keeping a clean sheet (September 1999 to March 2000 in the Premier League).

Comments:

League position: 12th Sheffield United had now kept 24 clean sheets in league games since the start of the previous season; no side in the top four divisions had kept more. The Blades became the first newly-promoted team to remain unbeaten in their first four away games in the Premier League since Hull City in 2008-09. United had now failed to score in four of their last five games in all competitions.
