Not exactly the same but very similar. AA191 was caused by improper maintenance that weakened the rear pylon mount. We don't yet know why the rear mount failed but this time but the prelim report claims the spherical bearing lug had metal fatigue cracks as well as signs of overstress, but doesn't mention any dents like we're present on AA191: (Sorry for the yt screenshot it was the only place I could find this picture yesterday)

Also AA191 crashed due to assymetrical lift due to the slats retracting as hydraulic pressure was lost on the affected wing, this time iirc the slats remained extended and the plane just didn't have enough thrust. It's possible that debris from the engine separation were injested by the #2 engine causing it to lose thrust as well while the plane was extremely heavy.
