Tough Start
Burnley come into this match on the back of a 0-0 draw at home against Huddersfield, a mixed result for Sean Dyche's men.
Huddersfield were second best in terms of possession, with Burnley enjoying 52% of the ball at home.
But it was the visitors who made the most of their possession, with nine total shots on the Burnley goal.
