Comments:

League position: 16th Aston Villa had now lost consecutive home leagues games for the first time since February 2017. They remained without a win in their opening home game in a Premier League season since 2011 when they beat Blackburn Rovers (played five, lost four). Newly promoted Villa had now lost 15 of their last 16 games in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 6th Josh King's second minute penalty (one minute, 40 seconds) became the earliest spot-kick to be scored in a game in the Premier League since Sergio Agüero for Manchester City against Newcastle United in February 2015 (one minute, 12 seconds). It was also the Cherries' quickest goal in the Premier League since Junior Stanislas scored against Leicester City in May 2017 after 59 seconds. They had now won three of their last six away games in the Premier League. AFC Bournemouth had now won their opening league away game in consecutive seasons for the first time since 1998 in League Division 2 (third tier).
