Comments:

League position: 7th Watford had now only lost one of their last seven Premier League games (won four). The Hornets had now kept three consecutive clean sheets in the Premier League for the first time since December 2015. They were also unbeaten in four consecutive Premier League games for the first time since December 2015.

Comments:

League position: 18th Hull City had now lost six consecutive Premier League games for a second time (also December 2008 / January 2009). The Tigers were now without a win in their last seven Premier League games. Michael Dawson 'scored' his first own-goal in the Premier League since 9 December 2006, when playing for Tottenham Hotspur in a 5-1 win against Charlton Athletic.
