Comments:

League position: 7th With this draw and with four games still to play, Southampton established a new club record of 57 points in a Premier League season, surpassing the 56 they accrued last season. It became their highest tally in the top division since 1984-85 (68 points). The Saints had now won just three of their last ten Premier League games. They conceded more than one goal in each of two consecutive Premier League games for the first time since March 2014. The second game then was a 3-2 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur.

Comments:

League position: 6th Tottenham Hotspur had won their last five Premier League games against Southampton. Spurs now had 58 points from their 34 games - their lowest total in the Premier League at this stage of the last four seasons.
