Sako netted after 21 minutes when he cut in from the left and past Phil Bardsley, before firing beyond Nick Pope.

Wilfried Zaha could have made it 2-0, but Ben Mee did well to hack off the line the winger's chip.

Burnley piled on the pressure in the second half, but Palace's Christian Benteke wasted the best chance, firing into the side-netting.
