It says much about Leeds’ travails against Watford that the last man to score a winner for them at Vicarage Road was Ross McCormack. That was in May 2013, when a side managed by Brian McDermott triumphed in a chaotic game where Troy Deeney was sent off and the hosts missed out on automatic promotion. With Watford scrabbling for Premier League survival and Leeds only six points clear of the drop, this game is similarly high-stakes. Joe Gelhardt has shaken off a knock and could feature, but Jesse Marsch will be without Patrick Bamford, Jamie Shackleton, Junior Firpo and Tyler Roberts. Will Magee
