Leeds vs Burnley Prediction

Leeds Form

Leeds should be high on confidence, as their last three matches saw them gain two victories and a draw. They started off drawing 0-0 with West Bromwich, before beating first Sheffield Wednesday by 0-2, then Hull in a 2-0 win. Leeds claimed a modest two wins in their past six home matches in the Championship. They also drew one and lost three, scored ten goals and conceded seven.

A second place finish is the absolute minimum Leeds should achieve this coming season where the main target is of course the title.

Burnley Form

In their previous three games, Burnley lost 1-0 and 2-0 against Sunderland and Wolverhampton, respectively, before drawing 1-1 with Blackburn. Burnley won three of a possible six away matches in the Championship, as well as playing two draws and suffering one defeat. They scored nine while also conceding five times.

A second place finish is the absolute minimum Leeds should achieve this coming season where the main target is of course the title.

Bookmakers have Leeds down as rather big favourites for the win, when Burnley arrive at Elland Road. While it might prove problematic, we still believe they will come through and deliver.

Leeds vs Burnley Team News

At the time of writing, it looks as if only two players are unavailable for Leeds, when they prepare for their upcoming assignment.

Pascal Struijk and Manor Solomon are all absent from the Leeds squad that faces Burnley at Elland Road.

More than a handful of players could be forced out of the next match for Burnley, who are looking at five players nursing various problems. Maxime Esteve and Joe Worrall racked up too many penalty points and won't be in the Burnley travelling party for their next match.

Names like Aaron Ramsey, Nathan Redmond, Jordan Beyer, Luca Koleosho and John Egan most likely won't be deemed fit enough to play Leeds.
