Comments:

League position: 13th Newcastle United failed in their attempt to win three consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since November 2018. The Magpies failed in their attempt to equal their top division club records of four consecutive clean sheets, and five in succession at home. They were now unbeaten in their last five home games in the Premier League (won two). Dwight Gayle was timed as scoring in one minute and 34 seconds after coming on as a substitute.

Comments:

League position: 19th Aston Villa had now taken two points from their last seven games in the Premier League and won one of the last ten. Villa remained as the only team that had yet to keep a clean sheet in an away game so far in this Premier League season. Goalscorer Ahmed Elmohamady played under Newcastle United manager Steve Bruce at Sunderland, Hull City and Villa.
