The Saints had now scored in each of their last 14 Premier League games at St Mary’s.

League position: 14th Sam Vokes' penalty was the first goal Burnley had scored in their four league and cup away games so far in 2016-17. The Clarets had now lost all three of their Premier League away games in this season and conceded three goals in each game. They had now lost 11 of their last 16 away games in the Premier League (two).
