Comments:

League position: 5th Tottenham Hotspur had now gone ten Premier League games without defeat since losing to Manchester United on the opening weekend of the season. Spurs had now conceded only five goals in their last eight Premier League games. Harry Kane had now scored 21 goals in the Premier League in 2015; three more than any other player. The Premier League's Goal Accreditation Panel ruled on the following: - Tottenham Hotspur's second goal against Aston Villa on Monday 2nd November 2015 has been confirmed as a Dele Alli goal. (Circular 10 - 5th November 2015)

Comments:

League position: 20th Remi Garde was confirmed as Aston Villa's new manager earlier on this day so Kevin MacDonald continued to take caretaker charge for this game. With only four points (a win and a draw), Villa had now made their worst-ever 11-game start to a league season. In 1969-70 when they were eventually relegated from League Division Two, they started with the equivalent of six points from 11 games (one win and three draws). Bottom-of-the-table Villa became only the fourth team to lose nine of their opening 11 games in a Premier League season. No team has lost more than nine. It also equalled a club record of seven consecutive Premier League defeats. The Premier League's Goal Accreditation Panel ruled on the following: - Aston Villa's goal against Tottenham Hotspur on Monday 2nd November 2015 has been confirmed as a Jordan Ayew goal. (Circular 10 - 5th November 2015)
