Comments:

League position: 2nd Liverpool had now equalled their club record after 30 games of a top division season (also won 22 and lost one in 1987-88 in League Division One). Roberto Firmino had now scored ten or more goals in the Premier League in all four of his seasons with the Reds. Sadio Mané became the fifth player to score in six consecutive home games in the Premier League for Liverpool (also Michael Owen, Fernando Torres, Luis Suarez and Mohamed Salah). The Reds have now scored two or more goals in 300 of their 515 home games in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 17th Burnley had now lost three consecutive games for the fourth time in this Premier League season. Ashley Westwood scored his first goal in all competitions since 23 April 2016 for Aston Villa against Southampton in the Premier League. The Clarets preceding nine goals in the Premier League had been been scored by either Ashley Barnes (five) or Chris Wood (four). The Clarets had now taken 30 points from their 30 games so far in this Premier League season; 13 fewer points than at the same stage of the previous season when they were in 7th position.
