Leeds United and Burnley have sealed their return to the Premier League after crucial wins on Easter Monday, ensuring promotion with two matches to spare.

Leeds delivered a statement performance in the early kick-off, sweeping aside Stoke City 6-0 at a jubilant Elland Road. Hours later, Burnley confirmed their top-flight status with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Sheffield United – a result that consigns the Blades to the play-offs.

For Leeds, it marks a return to the Premier League after a two-year absence. Burnley, meanwhile, bounce back at the first time of asking, following relegation last season.

Leeds striker Joel Piroe was the standout performer, scoring four goals in a rampant first-half display. Junior Firpo and Willy Gnonto also got on the scoresheet as Stoke, managed by Mark Robins, were outclassed from the start.

Captain Ethan Ampadu praised the team’s spirit and focus. “Very proud,” he told TNT Sports. “We’ve worked all year for this. We’re going to enjoy tonight, but we’ve still got another target to achieve. Another two games and we can finish off the job.”

Burnley’s win was less emphatic but no less significant. Josh Brownhill netted both goals, including a decisive penalty in the second half, as Scott Parker’s side edged out Sheffield United at Turf Moor.

“It means everything,” Parker said after full-time. “We set out at the start of the season with one goal – to get promoted. It hasn’t always been smooth, but the journey we’ve been on is nothing short of incredible.”

“As cliché as it sounds, I built my whole life on hard work, and I try to instil that in the players. The main thing is togetherness – that’s what’s got us to the Premier League.”

Both clubs now sit on 94 points, with Leeds leading on goal difference. If they win their remaining two matches, they could both finish the season with 100 points – a feat that would underline their dominance in this year’s Championship campaign.

Leeds United, three-time champions of English football (1969, 1974, 1992), continue to rebuild under Daniel Farke. Burnley, winners of the old First Division in 1920/21 and 1959/60, will once again test themselves among England’s elite.
