Comments:

League position: 17th Watford had now taken 250 points from their 250 games in the Premier League. The Hornets failed in their attempt to win four consecutive home games in a season in the top division for the first time since December 1986 in League Division One. Troy Deeney’s 70th minute penalty was saved. He had now missed three of his last six penalties in the Premier League after missing one of his preceding 13 in the division.

Comments:

League position: 8th This result ended Tottenham Hotspur's run of 93 games in the Premier League without a goalless draw (versus Swansea City on 16 September 2017). It became the second-longest such run in the history of the competion (114 games by Manchester United from May 1999 to May 2002). Spurs had now failed to score in their first three league games of a year for the first time since 1986 in League Division One. They ended a run of failing to keep a clean sheet in 18 consecutive away league games; their longest such run since April 1977 in League Division One.
