Prediction: 1-1
Leeds United
After suffering an expected defeat at Liverpool (0-2), Burnley will be aiming to record their first win of the season when they take on Leeds United at their Turf Moor. The Clarets do not seem to be at their sharpest at the start of the season, but it is well known that they are tough to beat at home. Dale Stephens and Kevin Long should be the only absentees in the home team as Ashley Westwood and Matej Vydra have recovered from their respective injuries.
The Whites, on the other hand, head into the match following a 2-2 draw with Everton. Given Leeds United’s attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. A man to watch in the away team will be Brazil international Raphinha, who scored a wonder equalizer at the weekend. Defender Diego Llorente remains in the recovery room.

Highlighted Team (Leeds United):
Leeds United is one of the clubs that won the FA Cup. The Whites outplayed Arsenal in the final of the prestigious competition back in 1972, but they clinched the League Cup trophy as well. Leeds United faced the Gunners in the 1967/1968 League Cup final and it has to be noted that Terry Cooper scored the winner for the Whites.
Leeds play their home games at Elland Road and the capacity of the stadium is 37,914. The club was founded in 1919 and they have won three First Division (Premier League) trophies ever since (1968/1969, 1973/1974, 1991/1992). Leeds United made it to the Champions League final in 1975, but they were beaten by Bayern Munich in the title clash.
The Whites were impressive under David O’Leary. The likes of Jonathan Woodgate, Lee Bowyer, Harry Kewell, Mark Viduka and Ian Harte were part of the Elland Road outfit back then and they did well to reach the semis of the Champions League in 2001.
