Osmajic scored North End's second and threatened more as the Clarets' 23-match unbeaten run came to an emphatic halt.

The game came only two weeks after the sides played out a goalless draw at Deepdale that ended with Burnley midfielder Hannibal Mejbri accusing Osmajic of using racist language, an allegation he denied and which remains the subject of an FA investigation.
