And they were rewarded with another away win.
The team who had won just twice away from home in their first 13 Premier League trips have now had three successive victories.
Goals late in each half by Mats Wieffer secured a 2-0 win at Turf Moor.

It was tense at times and the home side had two goals disallowed for very tight offside calls which went to VAR.
But, once Wieffer had guided home his second goal, the outcome was beyond doubt.
As the home stand emptied, Sussex By The Sea boomed out from the away section.

Then they chorused: “We are Brighton, super Brighton, from the south.”
After the game, two-goal Wieffer was ousted forward by team mates to lead the celebrations in the away section.

The game was played out in, at times, dazzling sunshine, and, at times, torrential rain.
But always in a strong, bitterly cold wind which made playing and watching tough.
