The Premier League is back in action following the second international break of the season, with Leeds United set for a crucial trip to Burnley. Daniel Farke's team have performed better in the top flight than their fellow promoted side, who have only managed to secure four points from their first seven matches.
However, it was Burnley who had the upper hand last season, securing a win and a draw, even though Leeds clinched the Championship title on goal difference. The Whites currently hold a four-point lead over Scott Parker's side as we head into this weekend's fixtures, but a loss at Turf Moor on Saturday could significantly reduce that gap. As the excitement builds, here's everything you need to know about the upcoming match.
When does Burnley vs Leeds kick off?
Burnley will host Leeds in one of five Premier League matches kicking off at 3pm. Brighton vs Newcastle, Crystal Palace vs Bournemouth, Manchester City vs Everton and Sunderland vs Wolves are also scheduled to start at the same time.
Is Burnley vs Leeds on TV?
Despite suggestions the long-standing 3pm blackout may be lifted in the next TV deal from 2028, it remains in effect for the foreseeable future. Consequently, this match will not be broadcast in the UK.
However, this is not the case globally. For instance, fans in the United States will be able to watch the match on Peacock.

As for the live matches this weekend, Nottingham Forest are set to host Chelsea in Saturday's early kick-off, with coverage provided by TNT Sports. Sky will then broadcast Fulham vs Arsenal at 5:30pm.
They also have Tottenham vs Aston Villa and Liverpool vs Manchester United on Sunday, as well as West Ham vs Brentford for Monday Night Football.
What's the Burnley vs Leeds team news?
Burnley will definitely be without Zeki Amdouni, Jordan Beyer and Connor Roberts, while Parker expressed hope that Lyle Foster will be fit after the South African picked up a dead leg on international duty.
Farke delivered some positive news in his pre-match press conference on Thursday, stating Dan James and Lucas Perri are ahead of schedule and could make the bench. However, he confirmed Karl Darlow would be starting in goal once again.
Willy Gnonto and Harry Gray are due to return to training with the squad from next week, although Noah Okafor presents a new worry. Jayden Bogle is expected to be fine following a knock before the break.
