Burnley FC will be looking to stop the rot as they host relegation rivals West Ham United on Saturday.
The Clarets have yet to secure a victory under new boss Brian Laws and extended their winless run to 12 games when they were defeated 2-1 by Chelsea last weekend.
Their home form in the Premier League remains solid however, with 19 of their 20 points having been earned at Turf Moor.
New signing Danny Fox faces a late fitness test to see if he will be able to make his Burnley debut.
The defender arrived from Celtic nursing a groin strain but has trained with his new team-mates this week and could be fit enough to feature.
Fellow new recruit Jack Cork will also be hoping to make his first appearance after joining on loan from Chelsea.
David Nugent is available again after missing out against Chelsea, while Kevin McDonald and Christian Kalvenes should also be fit despite coming off with knocks last weekend.
Chris McCann (knee) and Stephen Jordan (hamstring) are also pushing to be in contention but Steven Caldwell (groin) and Graham Alexander (calf) remain on the sidelines.
Possible starting XIs
Burnley: Jensen, Mears, Carlisle, Bikey, Cort, Kalvenes, Eagles, Elliott, Cork, Nugent, Fletcher.
West Ham: Green, Upson, Spector, Tomkins, Noble, Behrami, Faubert, Parker, Collison, McCarthy, Ilan.
