Comments:

League position: 19th Shortly after this game, West Bromwich Albion announced that Sam Allardyce would step down as manager at the end of the season. The Baggies had now lost eight of their last 14 home games in the Premier League (won two). Albion had now conceded 73 goals in their 37 games so far in this Premier League season; eight more goals than any other team in the division.

Comments:

League position: 6th In their final away game of the season, West Ham United had now equalled their club record for the most points from away games in a season in the top division (31); also in 1985-86 in League Division One. Only Paulo Di Canio (47) had now scored more goals than Michail Antonio (46) for the Hammers in the Premier League. Tomáš Souček became the first player from the Czech Republic to score ten or more goals in a season in the Premier League. Łukasz Fabiański was originally named in the starting line-up before suffering an injury in the pre-match warm-up. Darren Randolph was promoted to the starting XI with Nathan Trott taking his place on the bench. Declan Rice missed a penalty after three minutes.
