PLAYER RATINGS: Burnley 0 Watford 0

Honours were even as the bottom-of-the-table battle between Burnley and Watford finished goal-less at Turf Moor.

Neither side were able to find the crucial breakthrough, meaning the Hornets' first Premier League clean sheet in almost two years was enough to help them climb a place in the table.

The visitors had gone 31 games and parted company with six managers since their last shut-out at this level, but the Clarets struggled to find a way past Ben Foster in what was Roy Hodgson's first game in charge.

The ex-Manchester United goalkeeper denied Maxwel Cornet in each half following the Ivorian's return from AFCON while a fine block from Hassane Kamara denied Dutchman Wout Weghorst a debut goal as the ball looped on to the crossbar.

Captain Ben Mee almost steered the ball into his own net when defending a couple of Watford corners as Aaron Lennon cleared off the line in the first instance while the second, a headed clearance, flashed past the post.

Former Rovers man Josh King also threatened with a tremendous last-ditch intervention from James Tarkowski preventing the striker from pulling the trigger before Nick Pope made a save with his legs.
