Comments:

League position: 12th Ayoze Pérez's hat-trick was Newcastle United's 14th in the Premier League and their first since Georginio Wijnaldum against Norwich City on 18 October 2015. The Magpies had now won six of their last seven home games in the Premier League (lost one). They had now taken 41 points from their 35 games so far in this Premier League season; the same total as at the same stage of the previous season.

Comments:

League position: 16th Ayoze Pérez became the first player to score a hat-trick against Southampton in the Premier League since Harry Kane for Tottenham Hotspur on 26 December 2017. The Saints had won three of their preceding four games in the Premier League. They failed in their attempt to win consecutive away games in the Premier League for the first time since March 2017.
