Comments:

League position: 8th West Ham United had now won just two of their last nine Premier League home games but were now unbeaten in the last six at Upton Park. The Hammers had now kept clean sheets in both of their last two Premier League games having kept none in their previous nine league games. They were now on 24 points from their 16 Premier League games in this season; exactly the same tally as at the same stage in the previous season.

Comments:

League position: 11th Stoke City had now not conceded a Premier League goal while Ryan Shawcross has been on the pitch in this season (497 minutes in total so far). [c/o Squawka Football]. The Potters' 16 Premier League games had now contained only 27 goals in this season; the fewest in the division. Charlie Adam made his 100th Premier League appearance for City just two days after his 30th birthday.
