Burnley are on a five-match unbeaten run in the Premier League (their best of the season) but it could disappear with a defeat to Southampton at Turf Moor.

Sean Dyche's side put a big effort into their 2-2 draw at Manchester United on Tuesday and finished the game frustrated after conceding two late goals.
