Villa extend their unbeaten run to four but are held for the second successive game, this time at Turf Moor.
Villa take the lead but are pegged back by a controversial Burnley equaliser after Dicky Dorsett scores for the second successive game.
Villa climb to outright 17th as Everton are beaten at Charlton and a gaggle of clubs all the way up to 11th now sit just two points ahead.
