The Magpies avoided losing their first three games of a league season for the first time since 1999-2000. They had now drawn six of their last 16 games in the Premier League (won five, lost five).

Comments:

League position: 13th Southampton had now kept one clean sheet in their last 24 games in the Premier League and conceded 55 goals in 23 games. The Saints had now lost 11 of their last 13 away games in the Premier League, including all of the preceding six. They remained without an away league win since their visit to Sheffield United on 6 March 2021; longer than any other team currently in the Premier League.
