Preview: Leeds United vs. Watford

Sports Mole previews the Championship showdown between Leeds United and Watford.

In-form Leeds United take on Watford in the Championship this weekend looking for the win that could move them into the playoff places.

Brian McDermott's side have won five out of their last six matches, a run that has moved them within two points of the top six.

Watford, on the other hand, are in atrocious form with no wins in their last seven matches, but picked up a valuable point at Burnley in their last outing.

Manager Gianfranco Zola is likely to make several changes to his side to boost their goalscoring options, with Diego Fabbrini a possible alternative to misfiring striker Troy Deeney.

Leeds are expected to welcome back Sam Byram on the right, but may still be without the services of Scott Wootton and Dexter Blackstock.
