BREAKING NEWS;Leeds United v Watford Championship kick-off time has been rescheduled recently due to..

Leeds United host Watford at Elland Road in the Championship on Tuesday (22 October) as Daniel Farke looks to build on the 2-0 win against Sheffield United.

The Whites climbed to third in the league table after the win over their Yorkshire rivals on Friday (18 October) and currently trail leaders Sunderland by three points.

Watford have struggled to find a consistent run of form in the Championship this season under Tom Cleverley and will face a tough test to return to winning ways at Elland Road after the 3-0 loss to Luton Town on the weekend.

Farke kickstarted his side’s campaign with a monumental Yorkshire derby win against Sheffield United, meanwhile, and will have his sights firmly set on claiming the top spot in the league table in midweek.

Pascal Struijk and Mateo Joseph were the heroes on the night and, with Daniel James and Manor Solomon returning to the matchday squad, the Whites finally welcome back depth in the attacking ranks.

Leeds have been somewhat inconsistent in the league thus far but, had Illan Meslier prevented a last-minute goal in the 2-2 draw against Sunderland, the side would be sitting at the summit of the Championship one point clear of Burnley in second place.

Only three points separate the sides heading into the clash at Elland Road. If Cleverley can manufacture a shock victory for the visitors, Watford will be propelled into promotion contention.

Farke has been the subject of mounting pressure at Leeds after an inconsistent start, leading to questions on his ability to lead the side back to the Premier League, but the win over Sheffield United looks like a turning point.

Leeds welcomed back attacking duo James and Solomon against Sheffield United, with the pair gaining some much-needed minutes from the bench.
