Comments:

League position: 19th Crystal Palace had now lost eight of their last nine Premier League games at Selhurst Park (including the last five). They now had the worst home record so far in this Premier League season with two wins and nine defeats from their 12 games. This was the first time that the Eagles had conceded four goals in the first-half of a Premier League game. After 84 minutes and having used all their three substitutes, Palace were reduced to ten men when Scott Dann had to leave the field due to injury.

Comments:

League position: 20th Sunderland scored as many away goals in the first-half of this game as they had in their preceding nine Premier League away games. They scored four goals in the first-half of a Premier League game for the first time since 4 December 1999 in a 4-1 against Chelsea at the Stadium of Light. Before this result, Jack Rodwell had started 37 Premier League games for the Black Cats without experiencing a victory (lost 20); the longest such run in the competition's history. Jermain Defoe scored in the first minute of added time in the first-half. He scored his second in the third minute of added time in the first-half.
