Southampton v Burnley: match preview

Burnley remain winless after eight games and look likely to remain so unless they can figure out how to find the back of the net. Southampton have hardly been prolific though scoring only six this season to Burnley’s five. Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side recorded a first win against Leeds last week and they should feel confident of grabbing another against a Burnley side that appears to be fading. Graham Searles
