Comments:

League position: 4th Tottenham Hotspur were now unbeaten in their last 17 games in all competitions for the first time since 1967. Spurs had now won their last 16 games against promoted teams in the Premier League; the third longest such run in the competition's history (Chelsea, 27 from 2002 to 2006 and Manchester United, 17 from 2006 to 2009). Mauricio Pochettino became the 19th manager to win 100 games in the Premier League (played 197), and the first non-European to reach this mark.

Comments:

League position: 15th Huddersfield Town had now failed to score in 11 away games so far in this Premier League season; more than any other team. The Terriers failed in their attempt to win three consecutive games in the top division for the first time since April 1956. They had now not kept a clean sheet in their last eight games in the Premier League.
