Bielsa's team is undefeated between the two teams in the last 3 games in the Premier League with 2 wins and 1 draw.

Burnley is a team that struggles to win at Elland Road as they only have 2 victories at that stadium since 2004 and their last victory of the visit was in the already distant 2013 for the Championship.

Burnley player and former Leeds player Aaron Lennon scored his first goal since 2018 at midweek, although he has failed to score in two straight games since March 2016.

Jack Harrison is not yet to score in this Premier League season, but Leeds will hope that he is rediscovered as a top scorer in this match as seven of his eight goals last season were to win the match.

In the same way, Burnley is a team that is in the declining positions with just 1 victory in 16 games, the team will seek to start the calendar year with a victory and climb positions in the classification.

Burnley has accumulated 1 win in 7 games and on the road they have not won in the Premier League since May 10 when they beat Fulham 2-0.

Injuries and Covid-19 have torpedoed Leeds United's evolution of late, but they host Burnley at Elland Road knowing that a win could lessen fears of a possible Premier League relegation.

Those led by Bielsa could make history for the wrong reasons, as they seek to avoid defeat for the second consecutive season in the first game of the year since 2008 and 2009.

Leeds have a 3 game losing streak and 1 draw in their last 5 games, which has put them in the lower part of the classification.

Elland Road is a football stadium in Beeston, Leeds, West Yorkshire, England, which has been the home of Premier League club Leeds United since the club's formation in 1919. The stadium is the 14th largest football stadium in England.

The ground has hosted FA Cup semi-final matches as a neutral venue, and England international fixtures and was selected as one of eight Euro 96 venues. Elland Road was used by rugby league club Hunslet in the mid-1980s and hosted two matches of the 2015 Rugby World Cup.

Elland Road has four stands – the Don Revie (North) Stand, the Jack Charlton (East) Stand the Norman Hunter South Stand and the John Charles (West) Stand – and an all-seated capacity of 37,792 The record attendance of 57,892 was set on 15 March 1967 in an FA Cup 5th round replay against Sunderland. This was before the stadium became an all-seater venue as stipulated by the Taylor Report and the modern record is 40,287 for a Premiership match against Newcastle United on 22 December 2001. 

Plans are currently afoot to increase the capacity of Elland Road to 50,000, achieved by demolishing the West Stand and rebuilding the area.
