The Hatters had more than matched their opponents during the contest, only for Gabe Osho to handle Vitinho’s flick in the area, Ashley Barnes scoring the resulting penalty.

9. Jordan Clark: 8
No end his sight to his tricks as Burnley looked to prevent him from getting away by whatever means necessary, Brownhill booked for his foul means. Header looked like it might have sent Mpanzu through on goal only for the midfielder to take a wrong turn. Corners continue to prove a danger since taking over from the departed Bree.

10. Carlton Morris: 7
Had some threatening moments with Adebayo, particular in the opening 45 minutes as the pair combined well for an opportunity that saw his team-mate test the keeper. Won some good headers against a Clarets back-line who had plenty of tricks up their sleeves, but taken off before the hour mark as he was struggling with a few knocks. Photo: Liam Smith
11. Elijah Adebayo: 7.5
Looked lively throughout, and particularly in the first half, as he linked well with Morris and tested Muric low to his right. Had the best chance of the match late in that opening period, disappointingly scooping over from close range when picked out by Mpanzu, a miss that would unfortunately prove a telling one. Continued to give his all afterwards though. Photo: Liam Smith
12. Alfie Doughty (SUB): 7.5
On earlier than he might have expected due to Drameh’s injury, but quickly got to the pace of proceedings. Eager to get involved as he often found a team-mate with his passing and is hopefully over his own minor knock to carry on an impressive debut campaign at Kenilworth Road. Photo: Joe Portlock
