Burnley vs Leeds United
Burnley secure just their second win of the season, holding off sustained pressure from Leeds after taking a 1-0 lead in the first half. It looked for long stretches like the visitors would be next to score - Tuanzebe denied Calvert-Lewin what looked like a certain tap-in, before Harrison fired over after bouncing his effort into the turf. Leeds dominated possession throughout, but a lapse in concentration proved costly. Substitute Tchaouna was gifted acres of space on the edge of the area and made no mistake, unleashing a stunning strike into the top corner - a goal worthy of Goal of the Month honours, if not the season. That goal sealed the result, as Leeds simply couldn’t find the finishing touch despite generating 1.67 expected goals. Burnley, by contrast, created just 0.45 xG - with only 0.03 of that coming in the second half, via Tchaouna’s wonder strike. Next up, Burnley travel to Wolves in what could be a crucial clash in the relegation fight. Leeds will look to bounce back at home to an out-of-form West Ham after suffering back-to-back defeats. That’s all from us today - thanks for joining, and until next time, goodbye!
