Comments:

League position: 6th Sheffield United had now taken 40 points from their 27 games so far in this Premier League season; more points than in their entire most recent season in the division (38 in 2006-07). The Blades had now conceded 25 goals so far in this Premier League season; only leaders Liverpool had conceded fewer. United had now lost one of their last eight games in all competitions (won five).

Comments:

League position: 15th Brighton and Hove Albion had now drawn three consecutive league games in the same season for the first time since November 2015 in the League Championship. Albion had now recovered nine points from losing positions so far in this season; their most in a season in the Premier League. Due to Crystal Palace's victory against Newcastle United on the same afternoon, the Seagulls were now the only team in the Premier League and Football League without a win in any competition in 2020.
