Comments:

League position: 3rd Tottenham Hotspur had now won all four of their games at their new stadium, scored eight goals and conceded none. None of Spurs' last 68 games in the Premier League had now ended in a goalless draw since they played Swansea City at Wembley Stadium on 16 September 2017. They remained unbeaten in home games in the Premier League played on a Tuesday since Everton won 3-1 at White Hart Lane on 14 August 2007 (played nine, won eight).

Comments:

League position: 17th Brighton and Hove Albion had now failed to score in their last seven games in all competitions. Albion had now lost all 11 of their away games in the Premier League against the big six opponents (scored two, conceded 23). Former Tottenham Hotspur defender Chris Hughton had now lost four of his eight games in the Premier League against Spurs during his managerial career (won one).
