The relentless efforts of both teams have been richly rewarded with promotion to the English Premier League for the 2025-2026 season, along with estimated revenue of over $180 million (approximately 4,700 billion VND).

For Leeds United, their journey has been slow but steady. Leeds' first matches under manager Daniel Farke showed a clear change in their playing style.

Instead of their somewhat inconsistent enthusiasm in the past, "The Whites" played more disciplined football, focusing on ball control and building well-structured attacks. However, this period was not without its difficulties, with disappointing draws and defeats against direct competitors.

Midway through the season, with tactical adjustments and increasing teamwork among the players, Leeds United began to show their true strength. They established impressive winning streaks, defeating direct competitors and gradually climbing to the top of the league table. Elland Road became a true fortress, where Leeds secured crucial points.

Pressure mounted as the season entered its crucial stages. However, Leeds United maintained their stability and composure. Important victories against tough opponents helped them stay in the top two. The highlight was their crushing 6-0 win against Stoke City at home, a spectacular performance that officially secured direct promotion for "The Whites," much to the ecstatic joy of tens of thousands of fans.

Like Leeds, Burnley showed their determination to return to the Premier League in their first season under manager Scott Parker. With his extensive experience in leading teams to promotion, Parker quickly built a united and effective squad.

From the very first rounds, Burnley demonstrated their superiority over the rest of the league.

Their disciplined, well-organized defensive style, combined with their ability to capitalize on attacking opportunities, has helped them achieve consecutive victories. Their 31-match unbeaten streak is the clearest evidence of "The Clarets'" stability and strength.

Throughout the season, Burnley faced numerous challenges, from tense matches against direct competitors to the pressure of maintaining high performance. However, under the skillful leadership of Scott Parker, Burnley impressively overcame every obstacle.

Burnley's home game at Turf Moor against Sheffield United was crucial for their chances of direct promotion. With the enthusiastic support of their home crowd, Burnley played with great determination and secured a 2-1 victory.

The final whistle blew, and joy erupted as Burnley officially returned to the Premier League after just one season's absence.

Coach Scott Parker shared emotionally: "This promotion means more than ever. After facing many challenges in my coaching career, I chose to take a year off and then returned here to face a significant challenge. Now, I just feel immense relief and overwhelming happiness."

The return of Leeds United and Burnley is not only good news for fans of both teams, but also brings unique characteristics to the Premier League next season.

Leeds, with their fiery attacking style and glorious history, and Burnley, a team known for its disciplined play and high fighting spirit, promise to create exciting and dramatic matches. Fans are eagerly awaiting their performances in England's top league.
