Dominic Calvert-Lewin sealed the deal with the third goal at the 56-minute mark. Despite Loum Tchaouna scoring a consolation goal for Burnley in the 71st minute, Leeds dominated the match.

Key statistics from the match:

• Leeds had 65% possession throughout the game.
• They recorded seven shot attempts in the first half alone.
• With this victory, Leeds moved up to 14th place in the Premier League table.

Ethan Ampadu expressed relief and optimism post-match: “We like to think we’ve put ourselves in a strong position with three games left.” The atmosphere was electric as Leeds supporters chanted “we are staying up” following their decisive win.

This victory is particularly poignant as it marks Leeds’ first win over Burnley this season, highlighting their resilience and determination under manager Daniel Farke. Earlier in the season, they struggled significantly, posting a record of 6 wins, 11 draws, and 4 losses since December.

Looking ahead, Leeds will face Spurs on May 11, while Burnley prepares to host Aston Villa on May 10. The outcome of these matches will further shape both teams’ futures as they navigate this critical phase of the season.
