With summer arrival Isaac Schmidt still nursing a thigh injury, Junior Firpo should continue to hold down the left-back position.
Ethan Ampadu and Ilia Gruev will once again pull the strings from the midfield. Meanwhile, Mateo Joseph is likely to start as the sole striker after he netted his first goal of the season against Hull.
Leeds United predicted XI (4-5-1, right to left): Meslier (GK) — Bogle, Rodon, Struijk, Firpo — Gruev, Ampadu, Gnonto, Aaronson, Solomon; —Joseph
Burnley travel to Leeds with a depleted defence as Hjalmar Ekdal, Jordan Beyer and Maxime Esteve are all likely to miss out due to injury.
Zian Flemming, who arrived on loan, is possibly out till the end of September due to a calf strain.
Burnley predicted XI (4-5-1 right to left): Trafford (GK) — Roberts, Worrall, Egan-Riley, Pires — Anthony, Laurent, Brownhill, Koleosho, Hannibal — Foster
Leeds have found their stride in the last few games and now look like genuine promotion contenders.
Burnley are also in the mix, having scored nine goals in their first two matches. They were dominant early on, thrashing Luton 4-1 and Cardiff 5-0, but a defeat to league leaders Sunderland, who have won four in a row, was a setback. The draw against Blackburn felt like a missed chance to grab another win.
With Leeds in fine form, Burnley will face a tough challenge at Elland Road, where the hosts have proven difficult to break down.
Prediction: Leeds United 2-1 Burnley
