League position: 11th Wolverhampton Wanderers failed in their attempt to win consecutive away games in a top division season for the first time since April 1981. They had now scored five goals in the first-half of their 22 games so far in this Premier League season; the fewest in the division. Willy Boly became the first Wolves player to be sent off in a Premier League game since Sebastien Bassong versus Arsenal on 11 April 2012. They had now lost eight of their last nine games in the top division that were played on a Monday (won one), including all four in the Premier League.
