Match prediction for Leeds vs. Burnley
Leeds has shown impressive form lately and looks poised to be serious promotion candidates.
Burnley, having started strong with nine goals in their first two games, is now struggling after falling to league leaders Sunderland. Their recent draw against Blackburn was seen as a missed opportunity.
Given Leeds’ current form, Burnley will face a significant challenge at Elland Road, where Leeds has proven tough to beat.
