Comments:

League position: 2nd Manchester United retained their record of not having lost a league game at Old Trafford when they had been leading at half-time since 7 May 1984 against Ipswich Town in League Division One. Marcus Rashford had now scored seven of his 16 goals in the Premier League against the big six teams. Marcus Rashford scored his first brace in the Premier League since his debut in the competition (a 3-2 home win against Arsenal in February 2016). This was his 70th appearance in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 3rd Liverpool had now won only one of their seven Premier League games on the weekends immediately after a UEFA Champions League game this season (lost two). The Reds had now lost two of their last 21 games in the Premier League (won 14). Emre Can made his 100th start in the Premier League in this game.
