Available for over a year

Leeds United and Burnley have both secured their return to the Premier League, so how did they do it and do they have what it takes to stay in the Premier League? For Burnley it is an immediate bounce back after they were relegated last season, while Leeds took two years to secure their return. Dan Jewell, who covers Burnley for the BBC, joins World Football’s Nick Hatton to discuss the two side’s promotions and they also hear the views of former Leeds United striker Jermaine Beckford and former Burnley defender Michael Duff.
