Comments:

League position: 5th Everton failed in their attempt to score three or more goals in three consecutive home games in the Premier League for the first time since April 2017. The Toffees had now won their opening three home games of a season in the top division for the first time since 1989 in League Division One. Andros Townsend converted his first penalty in the Premier League since 1 January 2015 for Tottenham Hotspur against Chelsea.

Comments:

League position: 20th Norwich City had now lost their last 16 games in Premier League; only Sunderland (20 in the Premier League) in 2005 had lost more in a row in the top division. The Canaries had now failed to score more than one goal in a game in their last 24 games in the Premier League. City's last away win in Premier League was now at Everton in November 2019.
