Comments:

League position: 5th Manchester United were now unbeaten in their last 18 games in all competitions (won 13) for the first time since March 2013. United had now named the same starting XI in five consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since February 1993. Anthony Martial became the tenth player to score 50 goals for the Red Devils in the Premier League and the second Frenchman after Eric Cantona (64). Having used their three opportunities to make substitutions, Manchester United played in added time at the end of the game with ten men as Brandon Williams had to be withdrawn due to a head injury.

Comments:

League position: 12th Southampton had now won one of their last 24 away games in the Premier League at the big six teams (lost 17). The Saints had now scored in 16 of their away games so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. 103 goals had now been scored in their 35 games so far in this Premier League season (scored 45, conceded 58).
