Comments:

League position: 2nd Liverpool now remained unbeaten in 24 games in all competitions for the first time since 1989. This was the sixth time they Reds had led a home game in the Premier League by two goals or more but failed to win, and the first time since the visit of Newcastle United on 23 April 2016. They remained unbeaten in their last 118 games in the Premier League at Anfield when leading at half time (won 105). Sadio Mané scored after 33 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to a handball decision.

Comments:

League position: 7th Brighton and Hove Albion remained unbeaten in their five away games so far in this Premier League season (won two); their longest such run from the start of a top division season. The Seagulls had now taken 16 points from their ten games so far in this Premier League season; six more points than at the same stage of the previous season. Shane Duffy became the sixth player to make 100 appearances for Albion in the Premier League.
