It may have been an essential early battle at the bottom of the table between two teams searching for a result that will imbue them with the confidence to kick their seasons into gear, but both Brighton and Burnley were unable to offer anything new as they departed to the international break with a limp 0-0 draw.
Although so much of the talk this season has centred around an overwhelming number of goals sprinkled across the opening weeks of competition, neither team can relate. Brighton returned home having produced ample promising performances while failing to record a league win since 20 September, their pleasing fluidity in midfield so often crumbling upon sight of goal. Down at the foot of the table, Sean Dyche’s Burnley have managed just one achievement this year: their worst league start in the club’s history.
