Comments:

League position: 6th . Liverpool had now scored in 500 home games in the Premier League (played 584). . Wout Faes became the first player to score two own goals in a game for the Reds since Danny Malloy of Cardiff City in League Division Two on 22 August 1959. [c/o LFC Match by Match] . Despite this win, they would now end a year outside of the top four of the Premier League for the first time since 2015.
