Fulham vs Burnley

Not only do Fulham have a record of no wins, one draw and eight losses when conceding the opening goal in the Premier League this season, they have also failed to win for 21 top-flight matches after going behind. Can they end that streak today?

While Fulham came out on top in most metrics during the first half, most importantly, Burnley are still very much in this game. Can they go on to snatch all three points today and secure a third win on the spin at Craven Cottage for the first time in their history?

It remains 0-0 at the interval, as free-scoring Fulham fail to break down a resilient Burnley back four at Craven Cottage. After a bright start, the visitors found themselves pushed back by their hosts, who ultimately became the dominant force for most of the first half, managing 12 shots at goal compared to the Clarets' one. Trafford was required to make a couple of crucial saves, as Fulham probed diligently in search of an opening goal. They've lacked the final touch, though, so Burnley were able to cling on until the half-time whistle.

HALF-TIME: FULHAM 0-0 BURNLEY

CLOSE! In the third minute of four added for stoppages, Bassey sends a scuffed shot at goal from 10 yards following Pereira's free-kick into the area, but Amdouni makes a vital last-gasp block! Then, Muniz sends the ball well wide of the target with an acrobatic effort. Fulham just cannot find a way through!

After Amdouni's deflected shot goes wide for a Burnley corner, Tosin rises highest to head the ball away to safety from near Fulham's penalty spot. It looks like we will be goalless at the break.

SUPER STOP! Trafford adjusts his feet quickly to make an important save! After Iwobi's shot from the left side of the area is heavily deflected, Burnley's goalkeeper dives across to his left and firmly palms the ball away! He's been mostly responsible for keeping the visitors on level terms today!
