Comments:

League position: 20th Watford had now failed to win any of their opening 11 games of a league season for the first time. The Hornets had now scored two goals in their last six games in all competitions. They had now conceded 400 goals in their 239 games in the Premier League (scored 246).

Comments:

League position: 3rd Chelsea had now equalled their club record of seven consecutive away wins in all competitions (also from February to April in 1989, all in League Division Two). The Blues failed in their attempt to equal Everton's all-time record, set in December 1927, of winning five consecutive away games in the top division and scoring three or more goals in each game. Christian Pulisic had now scored four goals in his last two games in the Premier League to equal his career highest total of goals in a league season (previously twice for Borussia Dortmund).
