EPL Leeds and Burnley return to the Premier League.

Leeds United and Burnley won automatic promotion to the Premier League on Monday as faltering Sheffield United were forced to settle for a place in the Championship play-offs. Leeds, who have spent two seasons in the second tier of English football, humbled Stoke 6-0 at Elland Road, with Joel Piroe scoring four goals. Daniel Farke’s men knew that if Chris Wilder’s Sheffield side failed to beat Burnley in the later kick-off, they would be back in the Premier League.
