| - Burnley moved a step closer to Premier League safety as they won an away game for the first time this season with victory at Crystal Palace. Ashley Barnes and Andre Gray scored the goals to leave Palace seven points above the bottom three, with four games remaining. Despite the home side dominating the early stages, Barnes opened the scoring as he slid Stephen Ward's low cross through Wayne Hennessey's legs. Barnes had a second effort disallowed after he handled Michael Keane's header as he turned to scuff the ball home. Palace improved in the second half, dominating possession in the final 15 minutes, and were aggrieved when Wilfried Zaha was denied a penalty when he was brought down by Jon Flanagan. But Burnley's resilience paid off as substitute Gray drilled home a low shot as the Clarets won for the 11th time in the league this season. Victory took Sean Dyche's men 14th, eight points clear of the relegation zone.
