Comments:

League position: 16th This was Stoke City's first home league defeat on New Year's Day since 1988 against Ipswich Town in League Division Two. The Potters had now failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last ten home games in the Premier League; their longest such run in the competition. They had now conceded the first goal in 15 of their 22 games so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. City's total of 20 points after 22 games is their lowest total at this stage of a top division season since 1984-85 (11 points).

Comments:

League position: 13th Newcastle United had now won consecutive away games in the Premier League for the first time since 9 November 2014. The Magpies had failed to score in four of their preceding five games in the Premier League. They kept a clean sheet for the second time in their 11 away games so far in this Premier League season.
