Half-Time Report: Burnley lead 10-man Derby County

David Jones's strike in the 29th minute hands Burnley a half-time lead over their Championship rivals Derby County, who are down to 10-man.

Burnley have the edge in their top-of-the-table clash in the Championship against 10-man Derby County at the break.

The game started at a slow pace, but Burnley striker Danny Ings nearly brought it to life when he pounced on the ball 20 yards from goal and fired a shot. However, his effort went just wide of the post.

Sean Dyche's side were doing the majority of the pressing and Ings was involved again when he and Sam Vokes nearly combined in the box for a shooting chance, but Jake Buxton was on hand to make an excellent tackle to break up the play.

Burnley finally made their dominance pay when they took the lead in the 29th minute. The Rams gave the ball away from a corner, and Jones powered a volley over Lee Grant and into the net.

Matters got worse for the visitors just before the break when Chris Martin was sent off for a second bookable offense for simulation.
