Jose Mourinho managed Chelsea at Stamford Bridge for the 100th time in the Premier League, but saw his side lose for only the second time.

Chelsea's four point total is the second lowest at this stage of a Premier League season by a reigning champion, after Blackburn's three in 1995/96.
Jose Mourinho's last seven Premier League defeats have come against a manager with a surname starting with P.
No team has won more points than Crystal Palace away from home in the Premier League in 2015 (25 - same as Arsenal).

Manuel Lanzini's goal for West Ham at Liverpool today is the fastest scored in the Premier League so far in 2015-16 (2:28).
Mark Noble has scored in consecutive Premier League games for the first time in his career.
Noble has been sent off on four occasions in the Premier League - in two of these, he's also scored.
West Ham United have been shown six red cards in 10 games this season (all comps), compared to three in 43 matches in 2014-15.
This was the first Premier League game since January 10th 2015 to see both sides receive a red card.
This was West Ham's first top-flight league victory at Anfield since September 1963; ending a run of 42 successive top-flight trips there without a win.
Liverpool mustered just one shot on target in this game; the third time that they have done had just one shot on target at Anfield in a PL match since the start of last season (never 0 shots).
Manchester City v Watford
Watford have failed to register a shot on target in their last two Premier League games.
Eight of Fernandinho's Premier League goals have been scored at the Etihad Stadium.
Man City are unbeaten in their last 25 home Premier League games against newly-promoted opposition (W23 D2 L0), with their last defeat coming against Reading in February 2007.

This was the 3rd quickest that a side has been reduced to 10 men in a single Premier League game (31 mins).
The last team to have two men sent off in the first half of a Premier League game before today was also Stoke (v Newcastle on 26/12/2013).
Strangely, Stoke only committed four fouls in this match (and received two reds) - only one team have conceded fewer in a single PL game this season (Arsenal; 2 v Liverpool).
