Comments:

League position: 14th Brighton and Hove Albion had now won one of their last 11 games in the Premier League (lost seven) and remained without a win in their six games in the division in 2019 (lost four). The Seagulls avoided failing to score in three consecutive home games in the top division for the first time. This was the third time that they had conceded more than two goals in a game in their 32 home games in the Premier League. Both of Burnley's goalscorers previously played for Albion.

Comments:

League position: 15th Burnley were now unbeaten in seven consecutive games in the top division for the first time since February 1975 in League Division One. Only Manchester United (nine games) were now on a longer current unbeaten run in the Premier League than the Clarets (seven games). They had now been awarded penalties in consecutive games in the Premier League after ending a 67-game run without a penalty in the division in their previous game against Southampton. This was the first time that Burnley had scored three or more goals in an away game in the Premier League since a 3-0 win at West Ham United on 10 March 2018.
