Leeds United and Burnley automatically promoted to the English Premiership League from the English Champion.
Leeds United’s decisive 6-0 victory over Stoke City at Elland Road assured them of a top-two finish and sealed their promotion to the Premier League. Under Daniel Farke, Leeds has shown both attacking prowess and defensive sturdiness this season, winning 27 games, drawing 13, and losing only four of their 44 Championship games.
Leeds dominated Stoke City from start to finish, showcasing their credentials as one of the top teams in the Championship. The Elland Road crowd witnessed one of the team’s best performances of the season.
Scott Parker’s team has been incredibly consistent, as evidenced by their strong season finale and 30-match unbeaten streak is not mentioned but rather “30-match winning streak” which might not be accurate. Recent mistakes by Sheffield United, who now risk the playoffs as Leeds and Burnley pull away at the top of the table, have helped both teams.
The two promoted teams will now focus on the Championship title race with two games remaining. In other matches, Plymouth preserved their chances of survival with a 3-1 victory over sixth-place Coventry, thanks to Mustapha Bundu’s two goals. Derby and Luton also secured 3-1 wins, while Portsmouth confirmed their safety with a 1-0 win against 10-man Watford. Middlesbrough’s playoff hopes were dashed with a 2-1 loss to Sheffield Wednesday.
