Comments:

League position: 20th Newcastle United became the fourth team in the history of the top division to lose their opening five home league games of the season (also Manchester United in 1930-31, Portsmouth in 2009-10 and Bolton Wanderers in 2011-12). The Magpies' total of two points became their club record lowest after nine games of a top division season. Although they failed to win any of their opening ten games in 1898-99, they had taken four points after their first nine games. They had now lost 12 of their last 15 games in all competitions (won one).

League position: 12th This was Brighton and Hove Albion’s first win in their last 18 away games in the Premier League. With 11 points from nine games, Albion now had exactly the record as they did at the same stage of the previous season (won three, lost four). At his fifth attempt, this was former Newcastle United boss Chris Hughton's first win at St. James' Park as a visiting manager (lost three).
