Comments:

League position: 8th Wolverhampton Wanderers had now lost one of their last 14 home games in the Premier League (won eight). After 50 appearances in the division, only Steven Fletcher (22) had now scored more goals in the Premier League for Wolves than Raúl Jiménez (18). Captain Conor Coady made his 300th club career appearance in this game, and his 200th appearance for Wolves.

Comments:

League position: 17th Aston Villa had now lost three consecutive league games in the same season for the first time since February 2017 in the League Championship. Only Southampton had now conceded as many goals as Villa in the second-half of their games so far in this season in the Premier League (both 16). They had now kept one clean sheet in their last 24 away games in the Premier League.
