Comments:

League position: 18th West Bromwich Albion had now failed to win any of their opening eight games of a season in the Premier League for the first time. Having taken three points so far, Albion had now made their worst start to a league season since 1985-86 in League Division when they took one point from their opening eight games. The Baggies had now failed to win in their last nine games in the Premier League and failed to score in six of those games.

Comments:

League position: 2nd Tottenham Hotspur had now won their opening four away games in a league season for the fourth time in their history; also in 1949-50 in League Division Two, 1960-61 in League Division One and 2017-18 in the Premier League. Spurs now remained unbeaten in seven consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since April 2018. In his 218th appearance in the division, Harry Kane became the tenth player to score 150 goals in the Premier League. He had now scored eight goals in eight games in the Premier League against West Bromwich Albion.
