Comments:

Final league position 2019-20: 10th Burnley had now lost two of their last 16 games in the Premier League (won eight). Chris Wood had now scored 14 or more league goals in a season for the second time in his career (also 27 for Leeds United in the League Championship in 2016-17). Dwight McNeil became the sixth player to start all 38 games of a Premier League season before his 21st birthday. Jay Rodriguez scored after 58 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.

Comments:

Final league position 2019-20: 15th 702 goals had now been scored in Brighton and Hove Albion’s 282 games in the top division (for 290, against 412). The Seagulls extended their club record in the top division to seven away games without defeat (won two). After Mat Ryan and Lewis Dunk, Davy Pröpper became the third player to make 100 appearances for Albion in the Premier League.
