Comments:

League position: 17th Fabian Schär became the second Swiss player to score for Newcastle United in the Premier League; also Marc Hottiger against Chelsea on 1 April 1995. A defeat in this game would have equalled the Magpies' worst record after 23 games of a top division season; won four and lost 13 set in 1966-67 and 1988-89. They scored three or more goals in a game in the Premier League for the first time since the final game of the previous season (3-0 versus Chelsea).

Comments:

League position: 18th After 23 games, Cardiff City had now failed to score in 11 games so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. The Bluebirds conceded three or more goals for the fifth time in their last nine games in the Premier League. They had kept a clean sheet in the other four games. City failed in their attempt to win consecutive away games in the top division for the first time since February 1957.
