Leeds United go looking for their first home win of the Championship campaign when they host Watford on Saturday afternoon
By the time Leeds United kick off against Watford at 3pm on Saturday, the Elland Road crowd will have waited 172 days to see their side win a league game on home turf. The April 4 victory over Nottingham Forest remains Leeds' last victory in the league, but a five-game unbeaten run and three clean sheets on the bounce is cause for optimism after what was a trying first month of life back in the Championship.
Whites boss Daniel Farke oversaw a goalless draw at Hull City on Wednesday night, but Joe Rodon's second-half red card will mean that he will be forced into a reshuffle at the back. Liam Cooper returned from injury to come off the bench following the Spurs loanee's dismissal at the MKM Stadium and will be hoping to pip Charlie Cresswell to a place in the starting line-up.
Elsewhere in the back-line, Farke may be tempted to recall Sam Byram at left-back, while the likes of Glen Kamara and Ilia Gruev have been waiting for opportunities in the central of midfield that may now be opening up given the nature of the Championship schedule.Crysencio Summerville put in an impressive display when he replaced Wilfried Gnonto in Hull to do his case for replacing the injured Italian against the Hornets the world of good.
