Leeds United will be hellbent on picking up from where they left off before the international break as the Championship leaders make the trip to Vicarage Road to take on Watford.

With 12 wins in their last 13 Championship matches, Daniel Farke’s men are unbeaten in the league in 2024, closing what was once a 17-point gap with Leicester City to knock the Foxes off their perch at the top of the table.

They travel to a 13th-placed Watford with an eye to at least briefly create breathing space between them and their promotion rivals, sitting level on points with Leicester and just one above Ipswich Town in third going into the contest.

With everything still to play for in the race for the automatics, the Hornets will be eager to cause an upset and derail Leeds’ rampant charge towards a one-season return to the Premier League.

Team news

Watford were able to come through the international break unscathed, having no new fitness concerns to report. That said, Jeremy Ngakia and Ken Sema are doubtful to make their return against Leeds, having gone into the break nursing problems.

Wesley Hoedt will also miss the fixture as he serves the final game of his two-match suspension.

Leeds weren’t so lucky in the injuries department - Connor Roberts limped off for Wales in the Euro play-off final defeat to Poland, while Charlie Cresswell was notably absent from the England U21 squad that thrashed Luxembourg 7-0 on Tuesday.

Both could be unavailable for tonight’s outing, joining Stuart Dallas and Pascal Struijk in the treatment room.
