Comments:

League position: 20th . Southampton remained without a home win in the Premier League since the visit of Chelsea on 30 August 2022; longer than any other team currently in the division. . The Saints failed in their attempt to win their first league game of a year in four consecutive seasons for the first time. . They had now been behind at half time in 11 of their 18 games so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team.

Comments:

League position: 15th . Nottingham Forest had scored only one goal in their eight previous games so far in this Premier League season (at Everton on 20 August 2022). . Forest avoided completing a run of failing to score in seven consecutive league away games for the second time in their history; previously from September to November 1970 in League Division One. . This was their first away win in the Premier League since 8 May 1999 at Blackburn Rovers.
