Comments:

League position: 17th Cardiff City had now lost four of their last six games in the Premier League. The Bluebirds had now conceded 31 goals at home so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. They remained without a win in the ten midweek games they had played in the Premier League (lost seven, scored two).

Comments:

League position: 9th Everton scored as many goals in this game (three) as they had in their preceding five games in the Premier League. Gylfi Sigurdsson's opener was his 56th goal in the Premier League to become the leading Icelandic goalscorer in the competition; previously level with Eidur Gudjohnsen (55). Two players (Gylfi Sigurdsson and Richarlison) had now scored ten or more goals in a Premier League season for the Toffees for the first time since 2002-03 (Kevin Campbell and Tomasz Radzinski).
