Burnley and Southampton have entered the interval of their game at Turf Moor with the score level at 0-0 after a poor first half which saw very few chances for either side.
The best chance of the half came in the second minute as a confident Danny Ings looked to continue his rich goalscoring run, but the England Under-21 international sent his shot from 18 yards narrowly wide.

Eighteen-year-old Jake Hesketh then sent a wild shot into the stands on his full Saints debut and was booked shortly after for a late challenge on Tom Heaton.
His debut then ended on a sour note as he was replaced by James Ward-Prowse after failing to shake off an injury.
Neither side showed much in the way of quality in the final third and chances were few and far between as Ryan Bertrand saw his long-range effort fly harmlessly over the bar.
In fact, the next real chance came when Nathaniel Clyne almost inadvertently diverted the ball past Fraser Forster, but the goalkeeper did well to smother the ball among a melee of flying boots.
Kieran Trippier was given the opportunity to break the deadlock in the 35th minute, but the full-back's free kick went straight into the wall.
