Burnley midfielder Scott Arfield has admitted that tonight's 4-1 win over fellow Championship promotion candidates Derby County was "massive" for the club.

An own goal from Richard Keogh, converted penalties courtesy of Andre Gray and Sam Vokes, as well as a deflected strike from Arfield wrapped up the three points for the hosting Clarets.

It has lifted them above their visitors and into third spot, four points adrift of second-placed Middlesbrough.

"It was massive for us. We knew what they were going to bring, but when we're at home we're a force to be reckoned with," he told Sky Sports News.

Sean Dyche's men have not been beaten in any competition since Boxing Day.
