Comments:

League position: 15th Burnley had now won one of their last eight games in the Premier League (lost three). Had this game ended in a draw, the Clarets would have drawn six consecutive home league games for the first time since April 1936 in League Division Two and, similarly, created a new competition record in the Premier League. They had now failed to score in the second-half in their last seven games in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 17th This was Newcastle United's first win in the Premier League since 6 February 2021 against Southampton; longer than any other team currently in the division. This was the first time that the Magpies had won a game in the Premier League after conceding the first goal since 8 December 2019 against Southampton. Matt Ritchie became the 41st player to make 100 appearances for United in the Premier League.
