Comments:

League position: 9th Wolverhampton Wanderers had now failed to score in the first-half in 60 of their 85 games in the Premier League since they returned to the division in 2018. They remained as one of three teams that had yet to score more than two goals in a game so far in this Premier League season; also Burnley and Sheffield United. Conor Coady missed his first league game since Wolves’ visit to Burton Albion on 30 September 2017 in the League Championship to end a run of 119 consecutive league appearances.

Comments:

League position: 5th Southampton failed in their attempt to win four consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since May 2016. Having re-joined the club in October 2020, Theo Walcott scored his first goal for the Saints since a 4-3 win against Milton Keynes Dons in the FA Cup on 7 January 2006. Southampton had now scored 100 goals in the Premier League under manager Ralph Hasenhüttl.
