Leeds United v Burnley live stream, Sunday 2 January, 2pm GMT
Burnley will be looking to bounce back from defeat on Thursday night when they travel to Elland Road this weekend.
Sean Dyche’s side played their first game since December 12 on Thursday, but a weakened team was unable to prevent Manchester United running out 3-1 winners at Old Trafford. Burnley gave it a good go but were always going to struggle without some of their key players, and Dyche will have highlighted Sunday’s encounter as the important of his team’s two matches either side of the New Year.
Burnley could be playing catch-up for a while, having played as many as three games fewer than some of their relegation rivals. The Clarets have still only won one match all season, and they are still searching for their first triumph on the road.
Leeds had their two fixtures over the festive period called off, before which they lost three games in a row by an aggregate score of 14-3. Chelsea, Manchester City and Arsenal were tough opponents, but the manner of the defeats to the latter duo was cause for concern.
The break may well have done Marcelo Bielsa’s side good. There is no question of Leeds changing their attack-minded style of play for as long as the Argentine is at the helm, and they will see to overwhelm Burnley’s backline by flooding players forward on Sunday.
Leeds will have to make do without Liam Cooper, Kalvin Phillips, Rodrigo Moreno, Pascal Struijk, Daniel James, Charlie Cresswell, Jamie Shackleton and Diego Llorente, but Patrick Bamford could be fit enough to be included in the matchday squad.
Burnley will be unable to call upon the services of Nick Pope, Jay Rodriguez, Josh Brownhill, Kevin Long, Connor Roberts and Ashley Barnes. Dyche will hope to have Maxwel Cornet again after he was deemed not fit enough to return for the Manchester United game.
Kick-off is at 2pm GMT on Sunday 2 January. See below for international broadcast options.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
