What shaped the view
- Leeds should have territory, but Burnley’s lone-striker setup points to compression rather than an open exchange. Under also gets protection with a push on exactly three goals.
- Official XIs: Burnley start in a 5-4-1, while Leeds use a 3-5-2 with Bogle and Justin as wing-backs and Calvert-Lewin/Okafor up front.
- The side-family options are less clean: Leeds -1.25 needs margin against a packed block, while Burnley +1.5 is exposed if the low block cracks. Under 3.0 is the safer expression.

Why it made the board
CompleteBurnley’s confirmed 5-4-1 makes this more likely to be Leeds pressure against a compact block than a free-running game. Leeds have enough control to pin Burnley back, but the handicap asks for too much margin; Under 3.0 fits the 1-0, 2-0 or cagey 1-1 scripts and pushes at three.
Main risk
Tactical Counter: An early Leeds goal is the main danger because Burnley have attacking options to chase from the bench, which can turn the match into transitions. There is also some odds-trap risk because the market can clearly see Burnley’s defensive shape.
