A reminder of the starting XIs…
Burnley starting XI: Peacock-Farrell, Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Taylor, McNeil, Westwood, Cork, Brownhill, Wood, Vydra
Leeds United starting XI: Meslier, Ayling, Llorente, Struijk, Alioski, Phillips, Klich, Dallas, Harrison, Raphinha, Bamford
Admittedly there is not too much on the line for these players, but Leeds do have a slight motivation to improve their chances of a top-10 finish.
Hopefully with the pressure off we will get a decent, free flowing game…hopefully.
It’s another year where Burnley have largely kept out of a relegation battle, despite chronic underinvestment in Premier League terms. Former Clarets striker Peter Crouch believes manager Sean Dyche is not getting the credit he deserves.
‘He has to be in the conversation every year, he told BT Sport. ‘He’s done an incredible job. They’ve spent £1m in the Premier League this season. For him to keep this team in the Premier League is an incredible achievement – he gets the maximum out of these players.’
The Clarets stopper is the only change for Sean Dyche from the side that secured Premier League safety this week with a 2-0 win at Fulham. He replaces Nick Pope who is ruled out injured.
Meanwhile, Leeds make a couple of alterations from the side who brushed Tottenham Hotspur aside 3-1, as Robin Koch and Tyler Roberts make way for Kalvin Phillips and Raphina.
Meslier, Ayling, Llorente, Struijk, Alioski, Phillips, Klich, Dallas, Harrison, Raphinha, Bamford.
And first up for some pre-match entertainment it’s those attacking rascals Leeds as they visit a Burnley team who having survived relegation may now play with a few shackles off.
Good afternoon all and welcome to our live coverage from Turf Moor. Team news coming next…
