Comments:

League position: 1st Chelsea had now won seven consecutive Premier League games for the first time since 2010 (last three games of 2009-10 and first five of 2010-11). It was the first time they had won seven consecutive Premier League games in the same season since April 2007. Christian Eriksen's goal was the first that the Blues had conceded in ten hours and one minute of Premier League playing time since Theo Walcott completed the scoring in the 0-3 loss at Arsenal on 24 September 2016.

Comments:

League position: 5th In their 13th game, this was Tottenham Hotspur's first defeat of the season in the Premier League. They were the last club in England's top four divisions to lose their unbeaten record in 2016-17. Spurs had now won only one of their last ten games in all competitions (lost four). They now had the same number of points (24) and were in the same position (5th) at the same stage (13 games) of the previous season.
