Leeds United vs Watford Prediction

Leeds have improved in recent weeks after a poor start on their return to the Championship. The Whites are on a five-game unbeaten run in the league, drawing thrice.

Watford, meanwhile, have fallen down the standings, managing just one win since their emphatic opening-day win. Valerien Ismael's side opened their campaign with a 4-0 victory over QPR, but that proved to be a false dawn.

Leeds have been the draw specialists in the league (four), so expect the trend to continue in a low-scoring stalemate.

Prediction: Leeds 1-1 Watford
