Burnley interim boss Mike Jackson was happy with his side's battling point against Aston Villa which helped the Clarets leapfrog Leeds United out of the relegation zone with just one Premier League game left to play. Ashley Barnes struck first from the spot for Jackson's side, before a second-half goal from Emi Buendia for Villa pegged them back.
Neither side were able to seize the initiative after Buendia's goal, although Burnley striker Wout Weghorst should have sealed all three points for the Clarets late on, only to be denied by a last-ditch Tyrone Mings block. The 1-1 draw means Burnley have climbed out of the relegation zone above Leeds heading into the final day of the season.
Both Burnley and Leeds have 35 points. However, the former has a plus-20 better goal difference than Jesse Marsch's side, meaning that a win for the Clarets on the final day of the season at home over Newcastle could seal Leeds' fate, even if they beat Brentford away.

Fellow relegation strugglers Everton managed to secure their Premier League status for next season courtesy of a dramatic 3-2 come from behind win against Crystal Palace, which saw the Toffees trailing 2-0 at half-time.
Second-half goals from Michael Keane, Richarlison and Dominic Calvert-Lewin helped Frank Lampard's side battle past Palace, making it a straight shootout between Leeds and Burnley to avoid that final relegation spot back to the Championship.
And speaking after the 1-1 draw with Villa, Jackson revealed he was happy to come away with a point, adding it meant that their fate was in their own hands heading into the final day of the season.
"It’s a good point," said Jackson. "It’s a tough place to come, we knew we were going to be under the hammer at times, but it’s an unbelievable performance in terms of work rate, grafting, that discipline, it wasn’t pretty. But in terms of all those things you need at this stage of the season, I have seen that again tonight.
"That is what you want, you always want that. We’re at home, it is in our hands but we know that there is a lot of hard work to go, 90 more minutes of work to achieve what we want to. That’s our goal, rest up now and get ready for Sunday.
"Continue with what we have done today. Add that bit more quality with the ball but I think that will come, we have shown that before. Again, it is about that spirit now. It is there and it is about us focusing on the next game and attacking those moments."
