Comments:

League position: 4th . Chelsea had now failed to keep a clean sheet in 20 consecutive league games for the first time since August 1961 in League Division One (31). . The Blues failed in their attempt to become the second team to score in the first five minutes in each of four consecutive games in the Premier League: previously Brentford in October 2024. . They now remained without a win in five consecutive home league games against newly promoted teams for the first time since 1 September 1948 against Newcastle United.

Comments:

League position: 3rd . Hull City failed in their attempt to keep a clean sheet in each of their first four games of a league season for the first time since 1925-26 in League Division Two (five) and also the first-ever newly promoted team to do so in the top division. . The Tigers had now become the first newly promoted team to remain unbeaten after their opening four games of a season in the Premier League since Portsmouth in 2003-04. . City had now drawn 50 of their 194 games in the Premier League (won 43, lost 101). . Nobel Mendy’s replacement in the 59th minute was regarded as a concussion substitution, therefore allowing both teams the possibility to make six substitutions during the game.
