Comments:

League position: 18th Newcastle United had now conceded 68 goals in the Premier League in 2015; more than any other team. The only other defeat in their last seven Premier League games at St James' Park was against current leaders Leicester City but they had now failed to score in three of their last five home league games.

Comments:

League position: 9th Having scored in each of their last eight games, Romelu Lukaku failed in his attempt to become the first player to score in nine consecutive games in all competitions for Everton since Dixie Dean in 1927. (c/o Steve Johnson; Everton Complete Record) The Toffees had now lost one of their last seven Premier League games (won two).
