What channel is Leeds United vs Burnley on? How to watch live on Sky Sports and other platforms

Leeds United are back in action this weekend following the end of the international break and they will be hoping to continue their unbeaten run. The Whites have banked eight points so far from two wins and two draws and currently sit fourth in the table, behind Watford, West Brom and Sunderland.

Burnley will make the trip to Elland Road as the two clubs prepare to fight for an important result in their mission to secure promotion at the end of the season. The Clarets are just one point behind Leeds in the table but they will be entering the clash off the back of a 1-1 drawn against Blackburn, while the Whites last enjoyed a 2-0 win over Hull City.

Daniel Farke comments ahead of Burnley

During his pre-Burnley press conference, Farke said: “I think even the first games were really big tests. Away game at West Brom unbelievably difficult, they’re more settled and less fluctuation than us and Burnley.

“In the Championship, every game is a challenge and Burnley is without doubt one of the best sides in this league, very experienced coach, mature players, one of the big contenders for winning the title. Top start into this new season, little setback in the last game but overall we know it’s a tough task. Lots of individual quality within their team, lots of experienced players in the central positions.

“We have to be at our best, it’s tricky when 13 players are away, but at least we have a home game. Early kick-off on Saturday, would’ve wished for a later kickoff but it is what it is. We want to stay unbeaten with good defending and want to win as many points as possible.”
