Comments:

League position: 2nd Manchester City had now scored 30 goals or more in their opening ten games of a season in the Premier League for the third time (also 2011-12 and 2017-18). Fernandinho became the eighth player to make 200 appearances in the Premier League for City, and the third Brazilian to do so in the division after Lucas Leiva of Liverpool and Chelsea's Willian. This was the third time he had been sent-off in the competition. Raheem Sterling had now scored 13 goals in 14 appearances in all competitions so far in this season; more than any other player in the Premier League. After review, the Goal Accreditation Panel awarded the second goal to David Silva. It had originally been credited to Kevin De Bruyne.

Comments:

League position: 14th Aston Villa failed in their attempt to win three consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since April 2010. Villa failed in their attempt to equal the club record of scoring more than one goal in five consecutive games in the Premier League. They had now yet to concede a goal before half-time in any of their five away games to far in this Premier League season but conceded 11 goals in the second-half.
