Comments:

League position: 12th Leicester City avoided losing three consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since February 2019. The Foxes had now failed to keep a clean sheet in 200 home games in the Premier League. Jamie Vardy became the first player to score a goal and concede an own goal in a game in the Premier League for City.

Comments:

League position: 19th After six games, Burnley had now dropped ten points from winning positions so far in this Premier League season. The Clarets scored more than one goal for the first time in their last nine games in the Premier League. This was their first away league score draw since the visit to Liverpool on 11 July 2020; longer than any other team currently in the Premier League. Chris Wood scored after 90 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.
