Goals from Marcus Edwards, Josh Brownhill, Connor Roberts and Manuel Benson scored an emphatic 4-0 win for Scott Parker’s side.
The scoreline doesn’t entirely tell the full story though, as the Clarets were second best for the first 45 minutes and could easy have found themselves a goal or two down at the break.
But yet again they kept another clean sheet – their 12th consecutive shutout – all the while finding their shooting boots in front of goal to record a vital three points in the hunt for promotion.
Here’s how Burnley’s players rated:

For Hannibal, 60 Enjoyed an instant impact, scoring Burnley’s all-important second goal just 48 seconds after coming off the bench. It was a lovely guided finish too. Photo: Molly Darlington
14. SUB: Lyle Foster - 7/10
For Flemming, 60 Came so close to getting the goal he so badly needs late on when he prodded agonisingly wide of the post. Made the right runs in behind though. Photo: Molly Darlington
15. SUB: Jonjo Shelvey - 7/10
For Laurent, 80 With time on the ball, Shelvey was able to dictate things and pick out those trademark long balls. Photo: Lewis Storey
16. SUB: Jeremy Sarmiento - 6/10
For Edwards, 80 Didn’t have too much time to make a significant impact, but the change allowed Edwards to receive a richly deserved ovation. Photo: Alex Livesey
