Comments:

League position: 9th Wolverhampton Wanderers ended a club record run of 14 home games in the top division without a win (lost ten). This was their first win at Molineux in the Premier League since the visit of Sunderland on 4 December 2011. Wolves had now won 19 of their 29 home games under Nuno Espírito Santo in all competitions (lost two). They avoided drawing four consecutive home games in the top division for the first time since 1969.

Comments:

League position: 20th With one point from their opening five games, this was Burnley's worst start to a season in the top division since 1927-28 when they lost all five games. The Clarets had now lost 12 of their last 26 games in the Premier League (won five). They had yet to win an away game in the Premier League against a newly promoted team (played 11, lost five).
