The team included a trialist who was withdrawn at half time and Michael Duff made a further five changes in the first ten minutes of the second half.
The Burnley team was: Conor Mitchell, Luke Hendrie, Harry Flowers, Alex Whitmore (Arlen Birch 55), Trialist (Ali Koiki ht), Robbie Leitch (Christian N’Guessan 55), Aiden O’Neill, Mark Howarth (Rahis Nabi 55), Nashé Chakwana, Khius Metz (Tommy Wood 46), Harry Limb (Jamie Thomas 53).
