Comments:

League position: 9th Oumar Niasse scored 56 seconds after coming on to the pitch, so becoming the fastest goal scored by a substitute in the Premier League so far in this season. Theo Walcott became the 36th different player to play for the Toffees in all competitions so far in this season, so equalling the club record set in 2009-10. Since being appointed player/manager of Limerick in 1991, this was Sam Alardyce's 1,000th game as a manager, so becoming the 31st manager to be recognised by the League Managers' Association (LMA) to have reached this landmark.

Comments:

League position: 19th West Bromwich Albion had now won one of their last 22 games in the Premier League (lost ten). The Baggies had ended their club record run of 20 league games without a win by beating Brighton and Hove Albion in their previous game. Albion failed in their attempt to win consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since the first two games of this season.
