Comments:

League position: 2nd Liverpool had now created club records for the most points (30), best goal difference (+18) and fewest goals conceded (five) after the first 12 games of a Premier League season. The Reds had now equalled their all-time club record of the fewest goals conceded (five) after the first 12 games of a league season; also 1977-78 and 1978-79 in League Division One. Mohamed Salah had now scored against 19 of the 21 opponents he had faced in the Premier League while playing for Liverpool; failed to score against Manchester United and Swansea City.

Comments:

League position: 20th Fulham equalled their club record of six consecutive defeats in the Premier League; also in 2001-02 and 2012-13. The Whites had now conceded 31 goals after their first 12 games of this Premier League season. Only Barnsley (35) in 1997-98 had conceded more goals at this stage of a season in the competition's history. Macclesfield Town (bottom of League Two) were now the only other team apart from Fulham in the top four divisions who had yet to keep a clean sheet in a league game so far in this season.
