Comments:

League position: 2nd Manchester United had now won five consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since January 2019 (manager Ole Gunnar Solskjær's first five games in charge). United became the 11th team to concede 1,000 goals in the Premier League (played 1,108, scored 2,119). Mason Greenwood had now equalled Wayne Rooney's club record for the most goals scored by a teenager in the Premier League (15).

Comments:

League position: 18th Burnley had now lost three consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since their opening three games of this season. The Clarets had now won two of their last 13 games in the Premier League (lost six). They had now taken 33 points from their 32 games so far in this Premier League season; 12 points fewer than at the same stage of the previous season.
