Newcastle United returned to winning ways in the Premier League and added to Burnley's woes with a 3-1 victory at Turf Moor.
Eddie Howe's side entered Tuesday's contest on a three-match winless run since overcoming Burnley 2-1 earlier in December at home, but they raced into a 2-0 lead inside seven minutes.
Joelinton's rapid opener preceded Yoane Wissa – on his first league start for the Magpies – tapping home his maiden top-flight goal for Newcastle, before Josh Laurent halved the deficit with a fine 23rd-minute volley.
Laurent was denied another goal by the woodwork as Burnley dominated the second half, before Bruno Guimaraes profited from Martin Dubravka's error to seal all three points for Newcastle in the third minute of stoppage time.
The defeat left Burnley in 19th, six points adrift of 17th-placed Nottingham Forest, while Newcastle's second away win of the season moved them up to 10th.
How the match unfolded
Burnley were caught cold when Anthony Gordon twisted past Kyle Walker before his left-sided cross found Joelinton, who steered into the right-hand corner just 65 seconds into his 200th top-flight appearance.
Newcastle's second goal arrived five minutes later when Dubravka parried Harvey Barnes' drive and denied Guimaraes on the follow-up, only for Wissa to convert from point-blank range on his second attempt.
But Burnley responded when Armando Broja flicked on Lucas Pires' looping cross for Laurent to volley past Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope, and they almost levelled before half-time when Fabian Schar cleared Marcus Edwards' drilled effort off the line.
Edwards forced Pope into action when freed by Broja early in the second half, before Laurent's header from Pires' cross clipped the woodwork and soon after Loum Tchaouna nodded wide when unmarked.
At the other end, Burnley centre-back Bashir Humphreys headed Malick Thiaw's flick off the line before Newcastle substitute Jacob Murphy blazed an effort over the crossbar, but Guimaraes made sure of victory by lobbing Dubravka from range after the goalkeeper's miscued clearance.
Defensive woes for sorry Burnley
Scott Parker's plight has not been helped by injuries, with Jordan Beyer, Connor Roberts and Joe Worrall joining Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) participant Axel Tuanzebe in being unavailable, and their makeshift defence was badly exposed in the opening exchanges down both flanks.
A switch to a five-man defence did little to stem the flow, with jeers from the Burnley supporters greeting Wissa's finish, and matters worsened when Maxime Esteve limped off just 15 minutes into his return.
The home frustrations may have stemmed from the fact that Burnley only conceded 16 goals in last season's Championship, in stark contrast to the 37 they have now shipped in just 19 games into the 2025/26 campaign.
The atmosphere seemed to invigorate Burnley, however, as Edwards drilled narrowly wide from range before Laurent's first Premier League goal was confirmed after a VAR check for offside against Broja.
The energetic Edwards continued to embody a spirited Burnley response, with the midfielder going close either side of half-time, as well as teeing up Tchaouna to head wide after Laurent's looping effort almost crept into the top-left corner.
Despite Dubravka's late error, Parker will point to an encouraging response after a slow start as motivation for the long trip to Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday.
Howe's changes work as Newcastle scrape rare away win
There were questions around Newcastle's away form, and a lack of attacking potency in a 1-0 defeat away to Manchester United on Boxing Day added further concern.
Howe responded by making four changes from that loss, and a lightning-fast start quietened the noise as the decision to replace out-of-sorts Nick Woltemade with Wissa – and Barnes coming in for Murphy – paid dividends.
As he so often did for Brentford, Wissa rifled home an instinctive finish, with the on-field decision confirmed after a VAR review for a possible Guimaraes foul on Dubravka and offside against the striker.
Wissa should have headed home his second goal when unmarked from Guimaraes' corner, while the returning Barnes also impressed from a less-favoured position on the right wing.
The Newcastle forward was twice denied by Dubravka; first in the build-up to Wissa's goal and then when one-on-one, before he teed up Guimaraes to whistle an attempt narrowly wide.
Barnes created another chance late on that Murphy somehow missed from close range, but by that point, Newcastle had survived fortuitously when failing to protect Pope's goal.
Although Guimaraes' late finish added some much-needed breathing room, Howe must sure up their backline further before they host an out-of-form Crystal Palace on Sunday.

What the managers said
Scott Parker: "There's disappointment and an element of frustration. We gave ourselves a mountain to climb - seven minutes and we're 2-0 down.
"The positives are we showed a real spirit, a real commitment, a real fight. Sometimes in these moments - like in life - in times of adversity, spirit and commitment can disappear very quickly. Second half we were really dominant and created numerous chances."
Eddie Howe: "We needed to win because we knew we were under pressure. I thought the lads responded really well, it was a really fast start. We scored some really good goals and then, us being us at this present time, we made it difficult for ourselves. The second half was nervy to a point.
"There were a couple of moments where Nick [Pope] made massive saves for us. But overall I thought we showed real character and resilience in the second half to get over the line."
