Comments:

League position: 3rd Leicester City had now won four consecutive home games in the Premier League for the first time since in May 2017. The Foxes had now won five of their first nine games of a Premier League season for the first time since 1997-98. Since Brendan Rodgers' first game in charge in March 2019, Jamie Vardy had now scored 15 goals in the Premier League; more than any other player.

Comments:

League position: 8th This was Burnley's 100th away game in the Premier League. They had won 16 and only West Bromwich Albion (12) had won fewer of their first 100 away games in the division. The Clarets had now kept one clean sheet in their last 17 away games in the Premier League. They remained without a win in their last seven away games in the Premier League (lost five). Jonny Evans conceded an own goal after 80 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to a foul by Chris Wood.
