Comments:

League position: 19th Newcastle United ended their club record of 14 games from the start of a league season without a win. Only three teams had taken as many as 15 games to win their first game of a top division season and avoid relegation; Portsmouth (15 games in 1937-38), Leicester City (15 in 1975-76) and Sheffield United (16 in 1990-91). The Magpies won for the first time in their last 16 games in all competitions; their worst such run since August 1978. The Toon had now kept a clean sheet in three home games in the Premier League since the start of the 2020-21 season.

Comments:

League position: 18th This was Burnley's first defeat in their last six games in the Premier League (won one). The Clarets remained without a win in their last nine away games in the Premier League (lost five). They had now been trailing at half-time in 100 of their 280 games in the Premier League.
