Comments:

League position: 18th This became Southampton's biggest ever defeat in all competitions; previously 8-0 at Crystal Palace in the Southern League on 16 November 1912, at Tottenham Hotspur in League Division Two on 28 March 1936 and at Everton in League Division One on 20 November 1971. Their previous biggest home defeat was 6-0 versus Swindon Town in the Southern League on 23 January 1909, Plymouth Argyle in League Division Two on 5 December 1931 and Brentford in League Division Three on 9 March 1959. The only previous game to feature two hat-tricks by a team in a game in the Premier League was Jermaine Pennant and Robert Pires for Arsenal against the Saints on 7 May 2003. Since the start of the previous season, Southampton had now taken 24 points from their 24 home games in the Premier League (won five, lost ten); the fewest of any of the teams to have played in both seasons. Ryan Bertrand became the first player to be sent-off in a game in the Premier League following a VAR review. The Saints had now conceded 1,001 goals in home games in the top division.

Comments:

League position: 2nd This result equalled the biggest win in the history of the Premier League (also Manchester United versus Ipswich Town in March 1995). This also created a new record for the biggest away win in the history of the top division. The previous record was 9-1 by Sunderland at Newcastle United on 5 December 1908 and Wolverhampton Wanderers at Cardiff City on 3 September 1955 in League Division One. The previous biggest away win in the Premier League was 8-1 by Manchester United at Nottingham Forest on 6 February 1999. This became the Foxes' biggest-ever away win; previously 8-1 at Coventry City in the League Cup on 1 December 1964. Their club record win remained as a 10-0 victory against Portsmouth at Filbert Street in League Division One on 20 October 1928. This was the second time that an away team led by five goals at half-time in a game in the Premier League; also 5-0 by Manchester City at Burnley on 3 April 2010. Ayoze Pérez became the first player to score a hat-trick in consecutive appearances in the Premier League against the same opposition since Liverpool's Luis Suárez against Norwich City in September 2012 (also for Newcastle United on 20 April 2019). Ben Chilwell's opener was the Foxes' 7,000th goal in the Football League and Premier League.
