Comments:

League position: 12th Brighton and Hove Albion had now won four and lost four of their last nine games in the Premier League. This was the second time that Albion had scored two goals in the space of two minutes in a game in the Premier League; also versus Manchester United on 19 August 2018. The Seagulls remained as one of three teams that had yet to win a home game in the Premier League after conceding the first goal (21 games); along with Huddersfield Town (20 games) and Barnsley (six games).

Comments:

League position: 6th Wolverhampton Wanderers had now remained unbeaten in 11 consecutive games in the top division for the first time since September 1962 in League Division One. Wolves had now remained unbeaten in six consecutive away games in the top division for the first time since September 1959 in League Division One. They had now scored in their last 17 games in all competitions.
