Comments:

League position: 5th Of the teams in the Premier League throughout 2020, Manchester City had now conceded the fewest goals (23). Raheem Sterling had now scored 37 goals in 68 appearances in all competitions for City since the start of the previous season. This was the first time that they did not make a substitution in a game in the Premier League since a visit to Charlton Athletic on 2 April 2005.

Comments:

League position: 17th Fulham failed in their attempt to win consecutive away games in the Premier League for the first time since August 2013. The Whites had now lost 28 of their last 29 games in the Premier League against the Big Six teams. They failed to score for the second time in their last seven games in the Premier League.
