Comments:

League position: 11th Since the start of the 2016-17 season, Burnley had now conceded eight own goals in the Premier League; only AFC Bournemouth (nine) had now conceded more. The Clarets had now won one of their last eight games in the Premier League (lost five). Ashley Barnes failed in his attempt to become the first Burnley player to score in five consecutive games in the top division since Ray Pointer in 1962 in League Division One.

Comments:

League position: 1st Liverpool created a new club record of winning 13 league games in a row for the first time. They also became the second team to win 13 consecutive games in the top division while scoring more than one goal in each game (also Tottenham Hotspur in 1960 in League Division One). Roberto Firmino became the first Brazilian to score 50 goals in the Premier League. He also became the ninth player to reach the milestone for the Reds. They became the sixth team to win their first four games in consecutive seasons in the Premier League; also Newcastle United (1994-95 and 1995-96), Arsenal (2003-04 and 2004-05), Chelsea (2004-05 and 2005-06, and 2009-10 and 2010-11) and Manchester City (2015-16 and 2016-17).
