Comments:

League position: 11th AFC Bournemouth had now recovered 13 points from losing positions so far in this Premier League season; a joint-high with Everton. The Cherries had now failed to keep a clean sheet in their last eight home games in the Premier League; their longest such run at the Vitality Stadium. They had now scored at least two goals in seven of their last nine games in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 15th Newcastle United failed to win a Premier League game when leading by two goals at half-time for the first time since 25 February 2012 (a 2-2 home draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers). Dwight Gayle had now scored 28 league goals since the start of last season; more than twice as many as any other player for the Magpies (13 by Matt Ritchie). Mo Diamé made his 200th Premier League appearance to become the second Senegalese player to reach this figure after El-Hadji Diouf (243).
