Comments:

League position: 11th Watford failed in their attempt to win four consecutive home games in the top division for the first time since December 1986 in League Division One. They had now conceded more goals in the first-half of games in the Premier League so far this season than any other team (27). Troy Deeney failed in his attempt to become the first player to score in four consecutive home games in the Premier League for the Hornets.

Comments:

League position: 10th AFC Bournemouth had now recovered the most points after conceding the first goal of a game so far in this Premier League season (16). Jermain Defoe had now scored 15 goals in the 90th minute or later in Premier League games; four more than any other player in the competition's history. Charlie Daniels became the second player to make 100 appearances in the Premier League for the Cherries after Steve Cook.
