Comments:

League position: 11th This was Burnley's 200th game in the Premier League (won 54, lost 99) and their 100th at Turf Moor (won 38, lost 40). This was the first time that the Clarets had conceded four or more goals in a game at Turf Moor since Everton's 5-1 win in the Premier League on 26 December 2018. They had now failed to keep a a clean sheet in their last 35 games in the Premier League against the big six teams and conceded 79 goals.

Comments:

League position: 4th At 21 years and 38 days, Christian Pulisic became the youngest player to score a hat-trick in the Premier League for Chelsea; previously Tammy Abraham at 21 years and 347 days on 14 September 2019 at Wolverhampton Wanderers. The Blues had now scored hat-tricks in two away games in a season in the Premier League for the first time since 1997-98 (Gianluca Vialli at Barnsley and Tore Andre Flo at Tottenham Hotspur). They had now scored 16 goals in their away league games so far in this season; more than any other team in the top four divisions. Christian Pulisic's second goal was the 10,000th goal scored in Chelsea's 3,408 games in the top division (now for 5,232, against 4,772).
