The final game of Saturday in the Premier League sees Burnley host Southampton.

Neither side has won a point yet this season, which must change here, though the Clarets have played only once so far, while Saints have lost twice.

Burnley did beat Millwall in the EFL Cup in midweek, while Southampton were already out having been beaten by Brentford in the last round.

Both sides will be hopeful of kick-starting their campaign at Turf Moor in the evening fixture.
