League position: 1st Everton had now won their first five games of a season for the fifth time, and for the first time since 1938-39. They had now won five consecutive games in all competitions for the first time since September 2016. Dominic Calvert-Lewin became the first player to score five or more goals in the Toffees' opening three games of a top division season since Alex Young in 1962-63 in League Division One (five).
