Comments:

League position: 16th Southampton had now won six of their 13 games in the Premier League so far in 2019; the same as they won throughout 2018. Four of Saints' five home wins in this Premier League season had been against teams in the top half of the table; also versus Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal, Everton and Wolverhampton Wanderers. Southampton had now scored in 12 consecutive home games in the Premier League. They had now won two of their last seven games in the Premier League against newly-promoted teams (lost five). Nathan Redmond opened the scoring after 94 seconds. It was Southampton’s quickest goal in a Premier League game since Virgil van Dijk scored against Tottenham Hotspur on 28 December 2016 (69 seconds). Shane Long had now scored in consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since May 2016.

Comments:

League position: 8th Wolverhampton Wanderers were now without a win in their last five away games in the Premier League (lost three). Wolves had now lost more games in this Premier League season against teams that started the day in the bottom half of the table (seven) than those who began the day in the top half (five). They had now failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 13 away games in the Premier League. Wolves failed in their attempt to complete their second league double of this season, having done so against West Ham United.
