Comments:

League position: 19th Fulham had now lost a club record seven consecutive games in the Premier League. Their longest losing sequence in the top division was a run of 11 games from December 1961 to February 1962 in League Division One. The Whites had now created a new Premier League record of conceding more than one goal in 11 consecutive games (previously ten games by Wimbledon and West Bromwich Albion). Goalscorer Ryan Babel made his 100th appearance in the Premier League in this game (including 91 for Liverpool).

Comments:

League position: 1st Liverpool avoided drawing four consecutive away games in the Premier League for the first time since August 1996. Sadio Mané had now opened the scoring in eight games so far in this Premier League season. For any club, only Mohamed Salah had now done so more often (nine). James Milner had now scored 13 of the last 14 penalties he had taken in the Premier League.
