Glenn Murray's dreadful first half penalty miss proved costly as Brighton and Burnley finished level as both sides missed glorious chances to take all three points.
It was a cagey opening at the Amex Stadium, before the hosts had two great chances to open the scoring. Lewis Dunk saw his volley blocked by his defensive partner Shane Duffy, before Glenn Murray directed a header straight at Nick Pope in the Burnley goal from just six yards out.
Matt Ryan then had to be alert to save Johann Gudmundsson's deflected effort in Burnley's only real chance of the half, with Anthony Knockaert thumping the post with a powerful effort at the other end for Brighton.
