Comments:

League position: 19th This result ended West Bromwich Albion's club record run of 20 league games without a win, so becoming the fourth team to complete a run of 20 or more games without a win in the Premier League. In their first Premier League win under manager Alan Pardew, this was also the Baggies' first win in the competition by more than a one goal margin since 18 March 2017 (3-1 win against Arsenal). Albion had now won three of their last 32 games in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 15th Brighton and Hove Albion had now scored five goals in their away games so far in this Premier League season; the fewest in the division. The Seagulls had now won one of their last 12 games in the Premier League (lost six) They had now failed to score in eight of their last 11 games in the Premier League.
