Comments:

League position: 16th Aston Villa failed in their attempt to win consecutive home games within the same Premier League season for the first time since January 2021. Villa became the last team to concede in the first-half of a home game in this Premier League season. They had now scored seven goals in their first ten games of this Premier League season; only Wolverhampton Wanderers had now scored fewer (four).

Comments:

League position: 4th Chelsea had now won five consecutive games in all competitions form the first times since March 2022. The Blues avoided losing three of their first five away games in a season in the Premier League for the first time since 2015-16. They had now lost one of the 13 games they had played in the Premier League on a Sunday since the start of the previous season.
