Comments:

League position: 6th This was Fulham's 250th game in the Premier League at Craven Cottage (won 102, lost 91). The Whites had now won consecutive home games in the Premier League for the first time since April 2019. They had now won two of their last 17 games in the Premier League played in midweek.

Comments:

League position: 4th Brighton and Hove Albion would have been assured of taking over at the top of the top division for the first time in their history with a win in this game. This was the first time that Albion had failed to keep a clean sheet in their last eight games in the Premier League against a newly-promoted team. The Seagulls failed in their attempt to win their first three away games of a league season for the first time since 2011-12 in the League Championship. Brighton and Hove Albion were awarded a penalty in the 58th minute following a VAR review for a foul.
