Comments:

League position: 2nd Manchester City had now won their last five home games in the Premier League by an aggregate score of 19 goals to nil. They had now kept five consecutive clean sheets in home games in the division for the first time since September 2011. City became the first team to have five players who scored ten or more goals in a season in the top division since Everton in 1984-85 in League Division One. In their 250th home win in the Premier League, they became the first team to win 30 games in the division by a margin or five or more goals.

Comments:

League position: 13th Newcastle United conceded five or more goals in a game in the Premier League for the first time since a 5-0 defeat at Leicester City on 29 September 2019. The Magpies failed in their attempt to win three consecutive away games in the Premier League for the first time since December 2001. This was United's first defeat in their last seven games in the Premier League to end their longest unbeaten run in the division since November 2011 (14 games).
