Comments:

League position: 8th Everton had now won eight consecutive home games in the Premier League against 'newly' promoted teams. The Toffees had now lost one of their last 15 Monday night games at Goodison Park in the Premier League (won eight). Leighton Baines became the 18th player to make 400 appearances for Everton.

Comments:

League position: 10th This was manager Rafael Benitez’s 100th game in charge of Newcastle United (won 48, lost 31). The Magpies had now played their last 12 Premier League games on a Monday away from home (lost 11). They failed in their attempt to win five consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since November 2014.
