Comments:

League position: 12th Southampton had now won three of their last four games in the Premier League. The Saints remained unbeaten in their four games in the Premier League played on a Friday since the record 9-0 home defeat by Leicester City in October 2019. Nine goals had now been scored at St. Mary's Stadium so far in this Premier League season (five for, four against); the fewest at a venue in the division so far in 2021-22.

Comments:

League position: 15th Manager Dean Smith was sacked two days after this game. Aston Villad had now lost five consecutive league games for the first time since February 2017 in the League Championship. Villa remained without a win in 14 away games in the top division played on a Friday since April 1950 at Charlton Athletic in League Division One (lost 11). They had now failed to score in two of their last 16 games in all competitions.
