It’s safe to say that Burnley and Leeds have two very different ways of approaching football when it comes to their respective styles of play. Both effective, both pleasing in their own ways.

But so far this season neither of them have enjoyed the satisfaction of a Premier League victory, with Leeds earning one draw and Burnley yet to get off the mark.

Many pundits and punters have tipped Sean Dyche’s side to struggle this season as they attempt to punch above their weight yet again. This match is an opportunity to silence some of those doubters.

Prediction

Burnley have struggled for goals so far but will undoubtedly get chances against a Leeds side who love to leave the back door open. With that said, Leeds did the double over Dyche’s men last season and this is the perfect opportunity for them to build on an entertaining draw with Everton. It promises to be a hard-fought game that could well end all square. 2-2.
