Burnley 0-0 Watford: A soaked Roy Hodgson watched on as his Watford side battled both Burnley and heavy rain to earn a point in the Premier League survival clash

In his first game as Watford boss, Roy Hodgson saw his side draw 0-0 with fellow Premier League relegation battlers Burnley.

Having been on a beach last week, Hodgson found himself under the mercy of a wet Turf Moor and both teams seemed to struggle in the conditions.

With a combined 39 league goals in 40 games, it was unsurprising to see the first half end goalless but while the chances did increase in the second period, both sides were guilty of being wasteful.

Burnley were the stronger team in the second half but poor finishing in front of goal meant the game ended goalless.
