Sunday’s events conclude at St Mary’s as Southampton play host to Sean Dyche’s Burnley.

The Saints will be seeking a fourth consecutive clean sheet in the Premier League, a seventh in a row in all competitions.

Visitors Burnley will need to improve their attacking threat in order to threaten that record. The Clarets have scored just five goals from their seven matches, creating three big chances – the fewest in the Premier Leauge.

The Saints attack has disappointed with just seven goals scored in their seven matches. However, the statistics show that they have the potential to improve on that record in this one: Claude Puel’s side have produced a shot on goal every 4.8 minutes at St Mary’s – only Liverpool have been more threatening in home matches this season.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

  17. Baby Face Nelson
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Cleanies are a myth this season so far

    1. Backup Dancer
      10 years, 4 days ago

      More pens = less clean sheets

      1. Baby Face Nelson
        10 years, 4 days ago

    1. big_cliff
      10 years, 4 days ago

  21. Dušan Citizen

    CLEARLY RED DESERVED FOR TADIC! DEAN, ARE YOU BLIND?

    1. Team Cruel
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Blind is in Liverpool right now I would assume

      1. Woy of the Wovers
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Probably at home still.

    2. Woy of the Wovers
      10 years, 4 days ago

      We're not. We can read lowercase too.

      1. Dušan Citizen
        10 years, 4 days ago

        SORRY

  22. THE Wild Rover
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Terrible penalty

    1. MrMaverick
      10 years, 4 days ago

      lucky to score yep

  23. Ravager
    10 years, 4 days ago

    I needed that CS loss

  24. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Going 3-5-2/3-4-3 depending on fixtures. Rotating Austin and Allen. Seems the way forward. Best of both worlds. He's 5th mid, and I have early .4 from Capoue.

    Foster / Pickford
    Vert / Williams / Holebas / Kelly / Amat
    Sanchez / Firmino / Sterling / Son / Allen
    Aguero / Lukaku / Austin.

    Only other pressing issue is Pieters in for Kelly at some point. Son out maybe when Kane comes back, depending on form.

  25. Viprin
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Anyone got count if the number of pens awarded this season? Year of the pen takers

    1. Rhinos
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Aguero and Benteke essential

    2. Kaneyonero
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Year of the pen missers too

    3. MrMaverick
      10 years, 4 days ago

      ive only one pen taker in kun and maybe lukaku too

      concerned a wee bit

  26. Pasqualinho
    10 years, 4 days ago

    See, Christian and Sergio? Penalties are easy when you roll it down the middle and the goalkeeper dives out of the way.

    1. Rhinos
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Benteke's is rolling down the high street

      1. Badger Badger Mushroom Mush…
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Awful pen.

    2. Woy of the Wovers
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Poor Kevin. Always forgotten.

    3. Kaneyonero
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Legend says Beckhams pen is going out of the solar system right this moment

    Anyone know why Sam McQueen isn't listed on FPL?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      10 years, 4 days ago

      He will be soon.

      1. Eddie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Any chance he'll come straight in at 4.4?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          10 years, 4 days ago

          I'll ask FPL now.

    2. Rogue Todd
      10 years, 4 days ago

      Because he is a dead actor who was in The Great Escape?

      1. Eddie
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        10 years, 4 days ago

        Oh, thanks.

      2. TorresMagic™

        10 years, 4 days ago

        That's his grandpa.

  28. Kaneyonero
    10 years, 4 days ago

    Milner essential

  29. Bolivian Seaman
    10 years, 4 days ago

    'Every season is different': the season without cleansheets

    1. Numb
      10 years, 4 days ago

    2. Woy of the Wovers
      10 years, 4 days ago

    10 years, 4 days ago

    Do we know which game Mike Dean is in charge of next week yet?

    1. Rogue Todd
      10 years, 4 days ago

      If the head of refereeing is watching this game, Woking probably
