Comments:

League position: 14th Sheffield United had now lost consecutive home games in the Premier League for only the second time; also in March 1993. The newly-promoted Blades had now lost two of their last 12 league games (won five). United failed to score for the first time in their last 17 games in all competitions. Oli McBurnie scored after 52 minutes but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.

Comments:

League position: 10th Southampton had now won three consecutive away games in all competitions without conceding a goal for the first time since March 1986. The Saints had now won consecutive away games in the Premier League for the first time since March 2017. They had now won two of their last ten games in the Premier League (lost four).
