The Baggies had conceded 24 goals in their preceding six home games in the Premier League. With 14 games still to play, Albion were now 12 points behind Newcastle United in 17th position.

Comments:

League position: 2nd Manchester United had now recovered 22 points from losing positions so far in this Premier League season; ten more than any other team. The Red Devils had now conceded 600 goals in their 550 away games in the Premier League (scored 936). This was the first game that United had played in daylight since their visit to Leicester City in the Premier League on 26 December 2020 (kicked-off at 12.30pm). Manchester United were awarded a penalty after 62 minutes but was reversed after a VAR review due to a foul not being committed.
