Comments:

League position: 18th Fulham had now lost 11 home games so far in this Premier League season to equal their record in the top division (also in 1967-68 in League Division One and 2013-14 in the Premier League). The Whites had now lost 100 home games in the Premier League (played 283, won 120). They had now lost five of their last six games in the Premier League (won one).

Comments:

League position: 12th Wolverhampton Wanderers avoided losing three consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since November 2018. Adama Traoré scored his first goal in the Premier League since Wolves' 3-2 win against Manchester City on 27 December 2019. They opened the scoring for the second time in their last 21 games in the Premier League. Willian José scored after 45 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.
