They remain in 18th place after their eighth draw of the season but are just two points off Watford with a game in hand. Having made 11 changes for the midweek defeat to Dinamo Zagreb, David Moyes restored his regulars but included Arthur Masuaku, whose surprise late goal brought victory over Chelsea last week, and the left-back sent a volleyed effort just wide after Benrahma had seen a curling effort blocked.

Pope, who had already shown bravery to claim two corners under pressure, then made an instinctive stop to keep out Diop's header from close range. The goalkeeper's reward for his efforts was then to get a boot in the face from Michail Antonio, leaving him in a heap on the floor with a bloodied mouth. West Ham had a fair shout for a penalty just before the break when Craig Dawson tumbled in front of Dwight McNeil but though VAR took a close look, the decision remained with the on-field referee which deemed no foul had taken place.

Burnley came out with more intent after half-time and Dawson had to be alert to block a Rodriguez effort from inside the box. But the balance of play soon shifted the other way as Declan Rice began to impose himself, creating chances with a series of charging runs and incisive passes. His shift in performance level put West Ham in control but the final finish was lacking in the box.

When Rice raced forward again just before the hour, Pope did well to hook his cross over the bar as it headed towards Antonio at the far post.

The battle between Rice and Pope continued as the England midfielder pinged an effort inches over the crossbar from 30 yards. As frustrations built, Burnley almost snatched it with a swift counterattack. Josh Brownhill played in McNeil who slipped the ball forward for Matej Vydra, but the substitute went to ground as he tried to roll Rice, referee Graham Scott immediately signalling there was no foul.

There was still time for one last chance but Tomas Soucek summed up the lack of quality on show by firing a woeful effort into the stands from 15 yards out. Pope, who has missed out on the last two England squads, will have impressed the watching Gareth Southgate in the stands. But since then we have picked up more injuries. Tottenham requested the game was postponed in order to play its Europa Conference League game with Rennes that was called off last week due to the London club's coronavirus cases.

That also led to the postponement of Spurs' league game against Brighton last weekend. Manchester United's away game at Brentford on Tuesday was called off, too, following an outbreak at United. Most Popular.
