Teenager Lewis Miley found the bottom corner in the 57th minute, Miguel Almiron made it 2-0 and Dan Burn scrambled home late in the game to put the result beyond doubt.
Burnley face Everton later on Saturday, with Sean Dyche's men aiming for a fourth straight win. High-flying Aston Villa and Arsenal are both in action on Sunday, when Jurgen Klopp's leaders face under-performing Manchester United.
