Burnley became the first side in top-flight history to lose their first six home games of the season after a blunder by defender Jordan Beyer led to Jeffrey Schlupp\u2019s decisively breaking the deadlock in the first-half.<\/p>\n
Schlupp converted after 22 minutes as the Premier League\u2019s oldest manager, 76-year-old Roy Hodgson, got the better of the youngest Vincent Kompany, 37.<\/p>\n
Victory was then sealed in injury-time with defender Tyrick Mitchell scoring only his second goal for the club.<\/p>\n
The win put Palace – who welcomed back Eberechi Eze from injury and saw him assist the second goal – into the top half, leaving Burnley in the bottom three two points from safety.<\/p>\n
Burnley had started well with Zeki Amdouni heading wide and Palace\u2019s England goalkeeper Sam Johnstone put under pressure by a succession of home corners.<\/p>\n

But if Kompany will have been pleased with the way his side started, there was also huge frustration in the way they keep shooting themselves in the foot.<\/p>\n
Tyrick Mitchell launched a regulation punt that Beyer should have dealt with.<\/p>\n
Instead of clearing, the defender tried to shepherd the ball out for a throw and looked aghast as Jordan Ayew nicked it off him.<\/p>\n
On his 250th Premier League appearance, the Ghanaian showed composure to advance to the byline and fire in a cross that Jeffrey Schlupp was able to convert from close range by sliding in.<\/p>\n
It was the 12th first-half goal The Clarets had conceded this season, a Premier League high, and Beyer was utterly bereft judging by his reaction.<\/p>\n
The home side tried valiantly to equalise before the interval with Vitinho, Johann Gudmundsson and Luca Koleosho all close. Joachim Andersen also got a terrific block in to deny Koleosho.<\/p>\n
With Burnley bossing possession in the second half, Eze was introduced by Roy Hodgson after an hour as a counter-attacking threat \u2013 the skilful England star back after missing three games with a hamstring injury.<\/p>\n
One swift break saw Edouard set up Ayew and Berge got back well to block.<\/p>\n
Jay Rodriguez did put the ball into the Eagles net from an offside position but the home side found it hard to build concerted pressure.<\/p>\n
Johnstone was called into action in the closing stages to tip over from Josh Brownhill and then keep out a Rodriguez header from the resulting corner.<\/p>\n
Gaps appeared at the back in desperation to equalise and Eze took advantage, squaring for Mitchell to roll home.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Zeki Amdouni headed wide as Burnley started brightly, but suffered another home defeat<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Schlupp was in the right place to convert Jordan Ayew’s ball across the penalty area<\/p>\n
