Daniel James was named in the starting line up for Leeds

Watford host Leeds in the Sky Bet Championship in the late kick off on Good Friday.

Tom Cleverley kicked off his time as Watford interim head coach off to a good start prior to the international break with a 1-0 win over Birmingham City.

The Hornets head into the match against Leeds solidly in a mid-table position, 13 points behind Norwich who occupy the sixth and final play-off spot.

Leeds on the other hand are in the fight to be crowned league champions and secure automatic promotion back to the top flight.

Leeds and Leicester go into the weekend level on points, and one above Ipswich.

Daniel Farke boasts an impressive record for promotion to the top flight, having managed to do so twice when manager of Norwich.
