Key Events
- Mark Jackson’s side already promoted as champions.

Rodrigo
Very advanced. More or less upfront. Davis makes an early run forward from left back but Burnley clear.
Max Thompson...
Has nine goals for Burnley. A man to match. But Greenwood has ten. Gelhardt (not playing) has 11.
Here we go then...
Live updates to follow. Leeds seeking an 18th win of the season. Amazing. Pretty miserable day at Thorp Arch.
No Gelhardt.
For Leeds which is a shame. Mind, Rodrigo is not a bad replacement! Minutes also for Casilla in goal. Cresswell is captain and Shackleton is among those on the bench. Burnley - managed by Steve Stone - are fifth and striving for a play-off place so plenty to play for. Leeds were 4-1 winners in the reverse fixture in which Summerville bagged a treble. He is on the bench.
Burnley team:
Richter, Burton, Glennon, Benson, Spencer-Adams, Nartey, Tucker, Gomez, Harker, Richardson, Thompson. Subs: Allen, Armstrong, Costelloe, McGlynn, Rooney.
Leeds United under-23s XI v Burnley:
Casilla, Drameh, Davis, Casey, Cresswell, Berardi, Huggins, Jenkins, Rodrigo, Greenwood, McCarron. Subs: Caprile, Kamwa, McKinstry, Summerville, Shackleton.
