What once could have been a relegation ‘six-pointer’ could now be Leeds’ survival party, as they host Burnley in the 2025/26 English Premier League.
A win here would go a long way in securing Leeds’ Premier League status for another season, as they could climb up to nine points clear of the relegation zone – should other results go their way.
Manager Daniel Farke’s side had been unbeaten in seven matches before their FA Cup semi-final loss to Chelsea last weekend.
They remain unbeaten in their last five Premier League matches, however, as they prepare to face already-relegated Burnley on Friday night.
A spirited effort from manager Scott Parker’s Burnley ultimately fell short of its intended aim, as the Clarets were relegated last weekend.
Their farewell tour comes at the end of a poor run of form, in which they have lost all but one of their last seven Premier League matches.
What are the best bets for Leeds vs Burnley?
This is very much a proverbial tap-in for Leeds, as Burnley have nothing more than pride to play for in their remaining four Premier League games.
Leeds’ recent form is so much better than Burnley’s, and the prospect of Premier League survival should provide all the motivation that they need.
I’m backing the hosts to win and for Dominic Calvert-Lewin to find the net at least once.
The England striker enjoyed a recall to the national side after his improved form saw him score 10 Premier League goals.
He has since added another Premier League goal and will look to finish the campaign in strong form for his side.
