League position: 15th Newcastle United had now won six of their last 22 games in the Premier League (lost 11). They kept a clean sheet for the first time in their last ten games in the Premier League. Aged 21 years and 272 days, Joe Willock became the youngest-ever player to score in six consecutive appearances in the Premier League; also the third to do so for the Magpies after Alan Shearer in November 1996 and Papiss Cisse in April 2012.0 Sheffield United
