Comments:

League position: 16th Brighton and Hove Albion had now won two of their last 19 home games in the Premier League (lost nine). This was Albion’s first win in the Premier League by more than a one goal margin since their 3-0 victory at Newcastle United on 20 September 2020. The Seagulls had now kept a clean sheet in six of their last 11 games in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 17th Newcastle United remained without a win in the Premier League since 6 February 2021 against Southampton; longer than any other team currently in the division. The Magpies had now lost 82 of their last 95 away games in the Premier League when they had trailed at half-time (won two). They had now lost 19 and won none of the 25 games in the Premier League since December 2019 when they had conceded the first goal.
