Comments:

League position: 16th Newcastle United had now drawn three consecutive league games for the first time since August 2011 in the Premier League. Only Crystal Palace had now conceded more goals (13) in the last 15 minutes of games so far in this Premier League season than the Magpies (12). Ciaran Clark became the first player to concede an own goal in the Premier League against one of his former teams since Pablo Zabaleta for Manchester City on 29 April 2018 when playing for West Ham United.

Comments:

League position: 9th Aston Villa had now scored one goal in each of six of their last nine games in the Premier League (none in the other three). Villa had now won one of their last six games in the Premier League (lost two). They had now won one of their last six games in the Premier League played on a Friday (lost four).
