Comments:

League position: 3rd . Nottingham Forest had now scored the opening goal in 18 of their 22 games so far in this Premier League season; only Manchester City (19 in 2011-12 and 2018-19) had done so more often at his stage of a season in the division. [c/o OptaJoe] . Forest now remained unbeaten in nine consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since November 1995 (25). . They had now won six of their last 14 home games in the Premier League (lost four). . Nikola Milenkovic scored in the 64th minute but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.

Comments:

League position: 20th . Southampton had now failed to win any of their last 28 games when conceding first in the Premier League, since a 2-1 win at Everton on 14 January 2023. . The Saints had now failed to win any of their last 16 games in the Premier League played on a Sunday since a 3-2 win at West Ham United on 26 December 2021 (lost ten). . They had now equalled their club record of remaining without a win in 19 consecutive away games in the top division, set in February 1986 in League Division One.
