The Clarets, who ensured they'll be playing top flight football for a sixth successive season when beating Fulham, will be looking to avenge their narrow loss at Elland Road back in December.

Patrick Bamford, who spent time on loan at Burnley during 2017-18, netted the only goal of the game from the spot in the fifth minute after referee Robert Jones ruled that Nick Pope had upended the striker.

Half-time: Burnley 0 Leeds United 1

Klich’s strike late in the first half is the difference.

Westwood catches the ball well from 25 yards out and the ball travels just wide of the post.

Almost an equaliser

Vydra does impeccably well to take control of the ball and work his way into the box but the striker is denied by the legs of Meslier.

Rodrigo is Bamford’s replacement.

Brilliant intervention from Tarkowski to prevent Harrison's cross from reaching Rodrigo.

GOAL: Burnley 0 Leeds United 2

Alioski’s effort from the edge of the box is going wide, but Harrison flicks the ball past Peacock-Farrell.

Close, but no cigar!

Double change for Burnley. Barnes and Rodriguez are on, Wood and Vydra make way.
