Comments:

League position: 14th Crystal Palace remained unbeaten in their first four home games of a league season for the second time since 1996-97 (also 2019-20). Aged 19 years and 295 days, Michael Olise became the first teenager to score for Palace in the Premier League since Clinton Morrison against Sheffield Wednesday on 10 May 1998 (18 years and 362 days). Jeffrey Schlupp scored after 48 seconds after replacing Conor Gallagher; the second-quickest goal by a substitute in the Premier League so far in this season after fellow Eagle Odsonne Edouard against Tottenham Hotspur on 11 September 2021 (29 seconds).

Comments:

League position: 13th Leicester City had now scored two or more goals in 100 away games in the Premier League. This was the first time in their last 27 games in the Premier League when the Foxes had failed to win after leading by two or more goals at half time. Jamie Vardy (17) and Kelechi Iheanacho (16) had now scored 33 goals in the 32 games in the Premier League when they had both started.
