The Clarets recorded their first away win in the league for more than three months with a battling display at Coventry.

Ian Cox headed the only goal, flicking home Robbie Blake's 35th minute free kick and the recalled defender was inspired alongside the equally impressive Drissa Diallo.

They repelled most attacks and behind them Nik Michopoulos had a fine game in goal, making a couple of great saves. Callum Davenport came closest with a header against the bar in stoppage time.

It came as Burnley battled back from a slow start, with Nik Michopoulos making a couple of good saves.

Clarets boss Stan Ternent made four changes to the side that lost to Reading last week.

Nik Michopoulos came in for Marlon Beresford, who is expecting his second child any day. Ian Cox replaced Arthur Gnohere after his nightmare display, Graham Branch returned at left back in place of Mark McGregor and Alan Moore came into midfield for injured Lee Briscoe
