Comments:

League position: 20th Burnley had now won only one of their first 19 games of a league season for the second time in their history; also 1889-90 in League Division One. Four of their last seven games in the Premier League had now ended in a goalless draw. The Clarets became the first team to play their 19th game of a 38-game Premier League season in the month of February.

Comments:

League position: 18th Following the sacking of Claudio Ranieri, including caretakers, Roy Hodgson became Watford’s 11th manager in the Premier League. The Hormets kept a clean sheet for the first time in their last 31 games in the Premier League since a 3-0 win against Liverpool on 29 February 2020. They had now taken two points from their last nine games in the Premier League.
