Saturday’s visitors can’t seem to do anything right at the moment, and that is reflected in the Premier League table.
The Clarets will make the long journey to the South Coast off the back of a 3-1 loss at home to Newcastle, which made it 10 consecutive matches without a win.
Manager Scott Parker’s side have conceded the second most goals so far this campaign (37) and sit 19th in the Premier League table.
