Comments:

League position: 9th Wolverhampton Wanderers had now won two of their last nine games in the Premier League (lost three). Wolves failed in their attempt to win three consecutive home games in the top division for the first time since 1980. That run was ended by a 2-0 defeat by Brighton and Hove Albion on 15 November 1980. They had now conceded two goals in their last five home games in the Premier League.

Comments:

League position: 17th Brighton and Hove Albion had now won one of their last nine away games in the Premier League (lost six) and this was their first clean sheet in their last 12 away games in the division. The Seagulls had now won three of their last 19 games in the Premier League (lost 12). Albion had now taken 34 points from their 34 games so far in this Premier League season; two fewer points than at the same stage of the previous season.
