Comments:

League position: 8th Leicester City had now lost three of their last four home games in the Premier League. The Foxes had now taken 14 points from their home games so far in this Premier League season; three fewer than they had taken from their away games. There had now been nine red cards shown in City's games so far in this Premier League season (four for, five against); the most of any team in the division.

Comments:

League position: 16th Southampton won a game in the Premier League game after having had a player sent-off in the first-half for the first time since 12 April 1997 (Jason Dodd against West Ham United). At 19 years and 324 days, Yann Valery became the youngest player to be sent-off in the Premier League since former Saint Luke Shaw (19 years and 211 days) for Manchester United at West Ham United on 8 February 2015. Shane Long had now scored his last four goals for the Saints under four different managers (Claude Puel, Mauricio Pellegrino, Mark Hughes and Ralph Hasenhüttl).
