Comments:

League position: 12th Only Liverpool's Mohamed Salah (13) and Manchester City's Sergio Agüero (12) had now scored more goals in home games in the Premier League in 2018 than Glenn Murray (eight). Brighton and Hove Albion's only two wins in their last 13 games in the Premier League had now both been against Manchester United at home. The Seagulls had now lost two of their last 16 league games played in the month of September.

Comments:

League position: 11th Marcus Bettinelli saved Pascal Groß's 25th minute penalty. It was his first penalty save in a league game since March 2015 against Huddersfield Town in the League Championship. Fulham created a new club record of 20 consecutive away games in the top division without keeping a clean sheet. Since making his debut for the Whites in February 2018, Aleksandar Mitrović had now scored more goals in the Premier League and Football League than any other player (16).
