Comments:

League position: 14th Wolverhampton Wanderers now remained without a win in five consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since September 2019. Wolves had now failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 11 games in the Premier League; currently more than any other team in the division. They had now taken 22 points from their 18 games so far in this Premier League season; five points fewer than at the same stage of the previous season.

Comments:

League position: 4th Everton had now won 400 of their 1,093 games in the Premier League (lost 385). The Toffees had now won five of their last six games in the Premier League (lost one). They failed in their attempt to win three consecutive away games in the Premier League without conceding for the first time since December 2008.
