Leeds United faces Burnley in a crucial EFL Championship match, both teams vying for Premier League promotion.

A crucial clash in the English EFL Championship is set for Monday as Leeds United takes on Burnley at Turf Moor. Leeds, currently leading the standings with 59 points from 28 matches, is looking to extend their advantage over third-placed Burnley, who sit just three points behind with 56. This match is pivotal for both teams as they aim for promotion to the Premier League.

Burnley has been formidable at home, remaining unbeaten at Turf Moor this season, while Leeds United boasts an impressive 11-game unbeaten streak. However, both teams will be without key players due to injuries. Burnley will miss Aaron Ramsey, while Leeds will be without Pascal Struijk and Patrick Bamford.

The anticipated lineups suggest Burnley will feature James Trafford in goal, with Josh Cullen and Josh Laurent in midfield, and Zian Flemming leading the attack. Leeds United is expected to start with Illan Meslier in goal, Ethan Ampadu in central defense, and Joel Piroe as the lone striker.

Given both teams` recent form, this match promises to be closely contested, with a draw being a likely outcome. A win for Leeds would see them move six points clear of Burnley, while a victory for the home side would level them on points. The stakes are high as both clubs vie for a coveted spot in the Premier League. For more updates, visit EFL Championship News and check the latest Football Results and Fixtures.
