LOOK at the key stats and moments from the game against Leicester City.
BURNLEY
MARLON BERESFORD: Still unbeaten since his return and at times unbeatable. Great save to deny Dickov... 8
DEAN WEST: Tireless display and spent a lot of time closing down the crossing options for Oakes, Rogers and Davidson... 7
IAN COX: He just keeps getting better and his partnership with Gnohere continues to blossom. Immense display... 8
ARTHUR GNOHERE: Appeared to relish his battle with Deane and came out tops in the physical battle. Had a head in the goal... 8
GRAHAM BRANCH: Was unable to get forward too much but performed his defensive duties admirably, getting rid when need be... 7
GLEN LITTLE: Is clearly enjoying his partnership with Blake and in the second half the pair of them ran the home defence ragged... 8
STEVE DAVIS: Another strong display in midfield and his header from Briscoe's corner helped to create the only goal... 8
LEE BRISCOE: Came back into the side and worked hard in midfield. Delivered the corner for the winner and almost netted himself ... 7
ROBBIE BLAKE: A magical display, especially in the second half when he seemed to create space for himself and others out of nothing... 9
GARETH TAYLOR: Came back from international duty and did a typically good job as he led the line well, taking on both Elliott and Taggart... 7
IAN MOORE: His pace is always a threat but he showed the instincts of a natural striker as he nipped in to head home the winner... 8
