Comments:

League position: 18th Newcastle United had now failed to win any of their opening five games for the fourth time in their last seven seasons in the Premier League. The Magpies had now kept four clean sheets in the Premier League in 2021; three were against against the teams relegated at the end of 2020-21. They had had now conceded 13 goals so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team.

Comments:

League position: 16th Leeds United remained without a win in their opening five games of a league season for the first time since 1985-86 in League Division Two. Following the Whites' early opener, Norwich City were now the only team that had yet to lead a game in this Premier League season. All nine of United’s substitutes were born during or after 1999. Before kick-off, seven had yet to make their debut in the Premier League.
