First-half goals from Bashir Humphreys and Zian Flemming was enough for Scott Parker’s men to claim a thoroughly deserved 2-0 win at Turf Moor.
The Clarets produced one of their best halves of the season during a dominant first-half, before seeing out the remainder of the game to extend their unbeaten run to 21 games in league and cup.
Here’s how Burnley’s players rated:
13. SUB: Marcus Edwards - 6/10
For Flemming, 73 Looked a threat when he dropped the shoulder and almost picked out Foster’s run with a lovely throughball. Could have added a third in stoppage time. Photo: Alex Livesey
14. SUB: Jeremy Sarmiento - 6/10
For Hannibal, 80 Showed some nice touches as he looked to get in the gaps between defence and midfield as Burnley aimed to add a late third. Photo: Kelvin Lister-Stuttard Photo: Kelvin Lister-Stuttard
15. SUB: Joe Worrall - 6/10
For Anthony, 90 Only on the pitch for a minute or so but almost managed to get his head on a late corner. Hoofed a late clearance for good measure too. Photo: Matt McNulty
16. SUB: Ashley Barnes - 6/10
For Foster, 90 Not sure if he got a chance to touch the ball, but his late introduction allowed the crowd to give Foster a deserved ovation. Photo: Gareth Copley
