Comments:

League position: 8th Wolverhampton Wanderers conceded five or more goals in a game in the Premier League for the first time since Chelsea's 5-2 win at Molineux on 14 September 2019. Wolves had now conceded 13 goals in the first-half of their 36 games so far in this Premier League season. They had now scored two goals in their nine home games so far in this Premier League season against a team currently in the top half of the table.

Comments:

League position: 1st Manchester City became the first team to score 90 or more goals in ten seasons in the top division (four in League Division One, six in the Premier League). City became the first-ever team to win five consecutive games in the top division by a margin of three or more goals. Kevin De Bruyne’s hat-trick was the earliest in a game in the Premier League since Dwight Yorke for Manchester United against Arsenal on 25 February 2001 (22 minutes).
