Comments:

League position: 1st West Ham United failed in their attempt to win their opening three games of a league season for the third time; previously in 1958-59 and 1983-84, both in League Division One. They failed in their attempt to become the first team to score four or more goals in each of their first three games of a season in the top division since Blackburn Rovers in 1958-59 in League Division One. Michail Antonio became the first player since Tony Cottee in March 1986 to score 50 goals in the top division for the Hammers.

Comments:

League position: 14th Crystal Palace remained without a win in their last 11 London derbies in the Premier League (lost five). Conor Gallagher scored in the Premier League for the first time since scoring against Palace for West Bromwich Albion on 6 December 2020. The Eagles avoided failing to score in their first three games of a season in the Premier League for the first time since 2017-18 under manager Frank De Boer.
