Comments:

League position: 16th In their 19th game, this was the first time that Leeds United had scored more than two goals in a game in this Premier League season. They did so in ten games in the previous season. They avoided losing four consecutive league games for the first time since April 2015 in the League Championship. Stuart Dallas became the first player to make 250 appearances for the Whites since Lucas Radebe in November 2003. [c/o Jonny Cooper]

Comments:

League position: 18th Burnley had now won one of their 17 games so far in this Premier League season. Only in 1889-90 in League Division One had they failed to win at this stage of a league season. 102 goals had now been scored in the Clarets' 40 games in the Premier League since 1 January 2021 (for 40, against 62). They had now conceded 251 in their 143 away games in the Premier League (scored 131).
