Comments:

League position: 3rd Chelsea were now unbeaten in their last 11 games in all competitions (won six). They had now scored three or more goals in each of their last four games in all competitions (conceded one). Aged 36 years and 46 days, Thiago Silva became the sixth oldest player to score for the Blues in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 20th Sheffield United remained as the only team to lose all of their away games so far in this Premier League season. The Blades conceded four or more goals in a game for the first time in their last 132 games in all competitions since a 5-4 defeat by Fulham in the League Championship on 21 November 2017. United had now failed to score more than one goal in any of their last 11 games in the Premier League.
