Comments:

League position: 14th Newcastle United had now failed to win any of their last seven home games in the Premier League; their longest such run since April 2009. The Magpies had now taken 21 of their 23 points so far in this season against teams currently below them in the Premier League table. All four of Joselu's goals for United in the Premier League had now been scored at St James' Park.

Comments:

League position: 20th Swansea City had now taken four points from their last two away games in the Premier League; as many as they had taken in their previous nine away games. The Swans had now kept one clean sheet in their last ten Premier League games (conceded 20 goals). Jordan Ayew had now scored in three of his last five Premier League appearances after failing to score in his previous 15 games in the competition.
