The partnership between the Kiwi and the Czech Republic international had previously been seen only once in a blue moon.
The two former West Bromwich Albion forwards hadn't started a game together until the first home game of the season when Southampton came out on top at Turf Moor.

But they've now lined up alongside each other in the last four games in the Premier League and they have four goals between them.
After they were both on the scoresheet against the Saints at St Mary's, Dyche said: "I was really pleased with a lot of their performance.
"They didn't quite find the same level of sharpness in the second half, but they stuck at it so I was really pleased.

"There were moments that if there had been a bit more composure in the box we could have had more goals today. That continues to be a work in progress for us."
While Jay Rodriguez has played some part in the previous eight fixtures - with the last four from the bench - Dyche is confident that Ashley Barnes will soon add to his attacking options.
The 31-year-old, who is now tied on 41 Premier League goals for the club with Wood, has been missing since netting an equaliser against Fulham after sustaining a thigh injury.

"We keep getting people fit, then we get injuries, but we were hoping to have everybody fit," said Dyche.
"Phil Bardsley, unfortunately, had a family bereavement, Barnesy's making progress and getting fitter, Robbie Brady got injured on international duty, Longy pulled his calf, so all of a sudden you're men down.
"Then Erik Pieters goes off so you're left scratching your head again. We're hoping they're not too serious and we can get some of them back fit, but Robbie's going to be longer I think and we'll wait on news of Erik."
