Allan Saint-Maximin's fine individual effort opened the scoring for the Magpies before Ashley Westwood deservedly levelled for Burnley early in the second-half.

But the Clarets remain without a point this season as they had no answer to the pace of Saint-Maximin as he set up Wilson to restore Newcastle's lead.

The England international then scored his fourth goal in as many Premier League games for Steve Bruce's men from the penalty spot after Ryan Fraser was fouled by Nick Pope.
