The Whites regained top-flight status after a convincing 6-0 win over Stoke City at Elland Road, with striker Joel Piroe scoring four goals.
Leeds manager Daniel Farke praised his team's performance, saying they handled the pressure well during a crucial period and displayed excellent spirit and consistency in their results, particularly with clean sheets.
"The boys have done an amazing job, not just in terms of their quality of play, but also in their mentality and team spirit," Farke said. "Today's three points are invaluable."
Burnley, on the other hand, secured a 2-1 win over third-placed Sheffield United at Turf Moor, extending their unbeaten league streak to 31 games.
