Comments:

League position: 15th Southampton failed in their attempt to win three consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since May 2016. The Saints had now scored seven goals in four games in the Premier League under new manager Ralph Hasenhüttl; as many as they had scored in the previous ten games. They failed in their attempt to scored three or more goals in three consecutive games in the top division for the second time in their history, having completed a run of five such games from December 1980 to January 1981 in League Division One. Danny Ings made his 200th club career appearance.

Comments:

League position: 9th With one game still to play, West Ham United had now taken 15 points in the Premier League in December 2018 (played six, won five); their highest-ever in a month of a season in the competition. The Hammers had now won three consecutive away games in the Premier League for the first time since September 2015. After one goal in his first ten appearances in the Premier League, Felipe Anderson had now scored seven goals in his last nine games in the division. Michail Antonio made his 300th league appearance while Łukasz Fabiański made his 200th appearance in the Premier League. West Ham United named only six of a possible seven substitutes.
