Leeds Vs Burnley Preview
Having lost to Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final last time out, Leeds can put their full attentions into securing Premier League survival. The Whites are unbeaten in their last five top-flight games and currently boast a six-point cushion over Tottenham, who are languishing in 18th.
Daniel Farke and his players know that a win on matchday 35 will put the pressure on those below them. And the Leeds vs Burnley odds strongly suggest a home win is very much on the cards on Friday night.
As for the Clarets, their fate has already been sealed. Scott Parker has overseen just four victories all season in England’s elite and it was announced on Thursday that he has left the club by mutual consent. The next Burnley manager odds has already seen Steven Gerrard installed as the favourite to lead the Lancashire side in the EFL Championship next season.
For the trip to Elland Road and the final three games of the campaign, Mike Jackson has been put in temporary charge.
Leeds Vs Burnley H2H Record
Although Burnley recorded a fine 2-0 win in the reverse fixture, it’s Leeds who boast the better overall H2H record. Goals from Lesley Ugochukwu and Loum Tchaouna ensured the points stayed in Lancashire which actually made it three games unbeaten against the Whites.
Of the 67 clashes across all competitions, the Yorkshiremen have 34 victories compared to the Clarets 20. Since the year 2000, Leeds also have the upperhand. They have won 13 times whereas Burnley have secured eight wins.
Leeds vs Burnley H2H record since 2000 in all comps:
Leeds wins – 13
Draws – 3
Burnley wins – 8
Leeds Vs Burnley Team News
On the injury front, Leeds will be without Ilia Gruev and possibly Gabriel Gudmundsson – who has a slight hamstring injury. Other than that, Daniel Farke has a fully fit squad to choose from. Noah Okafor – whose double downed Man United earlier this month – will be the most likely source of goals. The Swiss star has netted five of the Whites last seven goals.
Which is something worth considering when it comes to Premier League betting on BetVictor’s Leeds vs Burnley betting markets.
As for Burnley, they’ll have to navigate their trip to Elland Road without the trio of Josh Cullen, Connor Roberts and Jordan Beyer. However, Hannibal Mejbri, Axel Tuanzebe and Zeki Amdouni are all pushing for recalls.
