The Clarets, who were forced in to three changes from the 2-1 home defeat to Aston Villa, were denied an opener as VAR intervened to chalk off Jeff Hendrick's header. The hosts took the lead from the spot when Matt Lowton upended Willian before Abraham doubled the lead before the break. Hudson-Odoi completed the scoring early in the second half from Cesar Azpilicueta's cross.
