Take a candle and place it in a tub, light the candle and fill the tub with water. The candle starts growing after some time. Now cover the candle with an inverted glass. You will find that the candle blows out after burning for some time, and the water level inside the inverted glass rises to some extent.
The component oxygen of air inside the glass is used up in burning. Therefore, water occupies that space. This shows that air supports burning.
