Burnley vs Leeds United Prediction
Burnley are unbeaten in their last 16 games across all competitions, recording 10 wins. They are unbeaten at home in the Championship, though four of the last five games during that period have ended in draws. They are winless in their last three home meetings against the visitors, suffering two losses.
Jordan Beyer, Aaron Ramsey, Enock Agyei, Manuel Benson, and Nathan Redmond missed last week's win over Plymouth and remain sidelined due to injuries. Scott Parker is expected to field a similar starting XI from last week here.
The Whites are on a three-game winning streak while keeping clean sheets, though all wins were registered at home. Two of their three losses in the Championship this season have been registered in their travels. They have won four of their last six games in this fixture and will look to build on that form.
Daniel Farke remains without the services of Patrick Bamford and Pascal Struijk due to injuries. Wilfried Gnonto was on the bench against Norwich and is likely to get the nod to start.
Both teams have been in great form and are expected to play out a closely contested draw.
