Comments:

League position: 3rd Manchester City became the first team to win a Premier League after receiving a red card in the first-half since Chelsea at Crystal Palace on 18 October 2014. [c/o Gracenote] Fernandinho became only the second player to be sent-off in consecutive home games in the Premier League (also Steve Sidwell of Fulham in April 2013). He had now been shown a red card in three of his last six games for City in all competitions. City were now unbeaten in their last 29 home games in the Premier League against newly promoted sides since February 2007 (won 26). David Silva was booked in the sixth minute of added time in the second-half.

Comments:

League position: 11th Burnley's goal was only the third they had now scored in away games so far in this Premier League season. The Clarets had now taken only one point from their nine away games so far in this Premier League season. They had now led for a total of only six minutes in their away games so far in this Premier League season (at Tottenham Hotspur on 18 December). Andre Gray was booked in the third minute of added time in the second-half.
