Comments:

League position: 3rd This result ended Manchester United's 20-game scoring run at Old Trafford in all competitions since they last failed to score at home on 1 April 2017 against West Bromwich Albion. The Red Devils were now without a win in their last four league and cup games (drawn three). Marcus Rashford made his 61st club appearance of 2017 in all competitions; more than any other player in Europe’s top five leagues in this year.

Comments:

League position: 13th Southampton had now failed to score in 16 of their last 33 games in all competitions. The Saints were now without a win in their last eight games in the Premier League; their worst such run since January 2005. They had conceded 11 goals in their preceding four games in the Premier League.
