Both Burnley and Leeds failed to win either of their first two Premier League games of the season, so this one is an opportunity for both to pick up three points.
Marcelo Bielsa’s side have continued to enthrall at the start of the campaign, scoring three times and conceding eight in a pair of basketball matches indicative of their playing style.
Meanwhile, Burnley have been suckerpunched by Brighton late on in their opening match, but were then dealt with pretty handedly by Liverpool at Anfield.
Sean Dyche’s side pride themselves on their home form, but they will want to win games like this to avoid talk of a relegation fight.

Draw: 5/2
Leeds: 5/4
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.
