Comments:

League position: 18th Fulham had now conceded one goal in their last three games in the Premier League after conceding 42 goals in the first 17 games of this Premier League season. The Whites had now won two of their last 17 games in the Premier League (lost ten). Aleksandar Mitrović's eight goals so far in this Premier League season had now been worth nine points.

Comments:

League position: 20th Huddersfield Town equalled their club record of seven consecutive league defeats which they set from 6 December 1913 to 1 January 1914 in League Division Two and from 8 October to 19 November in 1955 in League Division One. The Terriers became the first team to lose seven games in the Premier League in a calendar month since Leicester City in April 2001 (also seven). The Terriers had now scored 12 goals in their 20 games so far in this Premier League season; three fewer than any other team. Jonas Lössl saved Aboubakar Kamara's 82nd minute penalty.
