THE key stats and moments from the game against Leicester City.
BURNLEY
MARLON BERESFORD Will wonder whether he should have done more to prevent both goals coming from corners having had little to do...5
DEAN WEST Recalled to the side but still not back to his best although he did have a couple of useful efforts on goal...6
STEVE DAVIS Made a couple of vital clearances from dangerous situation and looked to be getting closer to being back to his old self...7
DRISSA DIALLO A couple of typically strong tackles with his long legs, especially one on Dickov, but deserved his booking...8
ARTHUR GNOHERE Delighted to be back in the side, albeit at left back, and played his part in attack and defence. One surging run was vintage...7
GLEN LITTLE His quick thinking helped to create the late consolation goal and he was always looking for the ball, clearly hungry for action...8
PAUL WELLER Caught in possession a couple of times but kept trying to get forward. Is getting stronger with every game...7
PAUL COOK Played some nice balls into the feet of his front men and worked hard until he made way for Alan Moore...7
LEE BRISCOE Back in the side after illness but only managed to last the first half before making way for Tony Grant...6
IAN MOORE His pace was a big threat to the statuesque defenders and he was often stopped by foul means rather than fair...8
ROBBIE BLAKE Some sublime touches created good chances and the one disappointment was that he did not have his shooting boots on...8

TIME FOR ACTION
3 Marlon Beresford is out of his area quickly to stop Paul Dickov who beats offside
14 Dickov collects a long ball with his back to goal but shoots wide
17 Paul Weller slips in Ian Moore but his sharp shot is saved by Ian Walker
23 Moore is released again, this time by Robbie Blake but he shoots wide under pressure
24 Sub Nicky Summerbee's low cross is cleared from the line by Dean West with James Scowcroft waiting
30 Robbie Blake wins a free kick but fires the ball over the bar
34 Blake wastes the best chance so far as he shoots over again after good play by Glen Little
36 Steve Davis is narrowly wide with a free kick again awarded for a foul on Blake
39 Dickov fails to make sufficient contact when found in space by Summerbee's cross eight yards out
48 Brilliant skill by Blake sets up an attack that ends with West thudding a drive against a defender
53 A free kick by West drops over the defence and Walker makes a doubler save to deny Blake. Seconds later Summerbee's drive is blocked at the other end
66 Another Blake free kick is closer this time, touching the top of the net
71 A cross is nodded down by Ian Moore but Blake can't keep his volley down
75 It is again Blake in on goal after being supplied by Little but his left foot effort is too high
77 Scowcroft's header is hoofed to safety by Davis two yards from goal
79 A Muzzy Izzet corner from the left is bundled in by Dickov after Matt Elliott's nod down
83 Deja vu as another Izzet corner from the same side is powered home by Trevor Benjamin
90 A sharp free kick by Davis puts Little clear in the box and his low cross is put past his own keeper by Frank Sinclair
