Preview: Leeds United vs. Burnley

Sports Mole previews Saturday's match between Leeds United and Burnley at Elland Road.

Burnley will be hoping to consolidate their place in the top six of the Championship when they travel to Leeds United on Saturday afternoon.

Sean Dyche's side, who have lost just one of their last six matches, ran out 3-0 winners over Birmingham City on Tuesday to move up to fourth.

Leeds have won two and lost two of their last four league matches, including Tuesday evening's 1-0 defeat to Reading.

Brian McDermott's side could move into the playoff places if they beat Burnley. The Leeds boss will be without Stephen Warnock as the defender was sent off in the closing stages at Reading.

Adam Drury is expected to deputise, while Sam Byram may be fit to play after recovering from a hip injury.

Dyche could name the same Burnley XI that beat Birmingham, with goalscorer Danny Ings retaining his place in the side.
