Comments:

League position: 6th Everton failed in their attempt to set a new club record of winning six consecutive home games in the Premier League without conceding a goal. Romain Saïss' goal was the first goal that the Toffees had conceded at Goodison Park in the Premier League in 549 minutes of playing time. It ended a run of six consecutive home clean sheets in the competition. Jordan Pickford had now completed the 90 minutes in all of his 111 appearances in the Premier League to equal the competition record for the most games while remaining on the field of play throughout each one; Ali Al Habsi for Bolton Wanderers and Wigan Athletic.

Comments:

League position: 17th If Wolverhampton Wanderers had drawn this game, it would have been the first time since 1938-39 that they had drawn their opening four games of a league season. Wolves had now failed to win any of their opening four games of a league season for the first time since 2004-05 in the League Championship. Raúl Jiménez had now scored six goals in his five away games in all competitions so far in this season. Wolves became the fourth team to play none of their opening four games in a Premier League season on a Saturday; also Liverpool (1992-93 and 2010-11), Manchester United (2007-08 and 2018-19) and Burnley (2018-19).
