League position: 4th Southampton had now scored two or more goals in seven consecutive home games in the top division for the first time since May 1984 in League Division One. The Saints had now taken 23 points from their opening 12 games of this Premier League season; 15 points more than at the same stage of the previous season. Former Sheffield United player Che Adams had now scored three goals in three appearances against the Blades in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 20th Sheffield United became the fourth team to take one or no points from their opening 12 games of a season in the Premier League or Football League; also Manchester United in 1930-31 in League Division One, New Brighton in 1931-32 in the Division Three (North) and Newport County in 1970-71 in League Division Four. 400 goals had now been scored in the Blades' 172 games in the Premier League (for 172, against 228). Aged 38 years and 118 days, Phil Jagielka became the 19th oldest-ever outfield player to appear in the Premier League.
