West Brom put in a battling display with 10 men but ultimately stayed 11 points from safety after a 0-0 draw at Burnley.
Despite a positive start, West Brom's uphill task became even steeper on the half-hour mark when Semi Ajayi was sent off for denying a goalscoring opportunity. Mike Dean, back in action this weekend, once again went to the pitchside monitors to check but had a more straightforward decision to make this time.
The away side stayed on the front foot but couldn't find the all-important breakthrough, with Mbaye Diagne's effort flying over before a miss then a goal-line clearance from Matheus Pereira's strikes proving not enough.
