Comments:

League position: 14th This was their first time that Cardiff City had won three consecutive home games in the top division since March 1961. This was the first time that the Bluebirds had kept a clean sheet in their last 13 games in the Premier League. Nine of Callum Paterson's 14 league goals for City had now been scored in home games.

Comments:

League position: 19th This was new manager Ralph Hasenhüttl's first game. He became the first Austrian to take charge of a game in the Premier League. None of Southampton's last eight permanent managers had now won their first game. The Saints remained without a win in their last 14 games in all competitions (lost seven); their longest such run since March 1989 (20 games). They had now won four of their last 41 games in the Premier League (lost 20).
