On Monday, Leeds United and Burnley secured the two direct promotion spots to the English Premier League.

Their promotion was confirmed as Sheffield United lost 2-1 to Burnley in the 44th round of the English Championship.

Taken place at Elland Road, Leeds United thrash Stoke City 6-0 in a spectacular attacking display, maintaining their position at the top of the table.

Leeds United improved their stand at the top of the standings, bringing it to 94 points, three points ahead of second-placed Burnley.

Meanwhile, Sheffield United remained at 86 points following their unexpected loss to Burnley, falling 8 points behind Leeds.

According to the Championship rules, the top two teams earn direct promotion to the Premier League, while the teams ranked third to sixth compete in the play-offs to determine the third promoted team.

This promotion marks a historic moment for Leeds United fans, as it comes after the club was relegated from the Premier League in the 2022-2023 season.
