Comments:

League position: 18th Leicester City had now failed to win in their opening three games of a season in the Premier League for the first time since 2014-15. The Foxes had now lost two of their last 11 home games in the Premier League (won five). They had now kept a clean sheet in six of last their 21 games in all competitions.

Comments:

League position: 12th This was Southampton's first away win in the Premier League since their visit to Tottenham Hotspur on 9 February 2022; longer than any other current team in the division (excluding the newly-promted teams). This was the Saints' first win in their last nine games in the Premier League (lost six). They ended a club record of conceding more than one goal in eight consecutive games in the top division.
