Comments:

League position: 7th Everton had now conceded 600 goals in their 547 home games in the Premier League (scored 846). This was the Toffees' first draw in a home game in the Premier League since the visit of Liverpool on 17 October 2020; longer than any other team currently in the division. They failed in their attempt to win 11 of their opening 18 games of a season in Premier League for the second time; previously in 2004-05.

Comments:

League position: 3rd Leicester City had now taken 39 points from their 20 games so far in this Premier League season; one point fewer than at the same stage of their title-winning season (2015-16). The Foxes were now unbeaten in their nine games in all competitions since Everton's 2-0 win at the King Power Stadium in the Premier League on 16 December 2020 (won six). Youri Tielemans had now scored five goals so far in this Premier League season; all scored in away games.
