Key events
And itâs all over at Ewood Park, with Ipswich winning 1-0 to go top of the Championship table. Leeds will have to win tonight to go back to No 1.
Hereâs everything thatâs been happening elsewhere in the Champo. Ipswich are still 1-0 up against Blackburn, with not long left.
Of course, worth noting that there are a few names in that Leeds line-up who suffered heartbreak during the internationals: Joe Rodon, Ethan Ampadu and Dan James all featured in Walesâ playoff loss to Poland, with James missing in the penalty shootout. A tough one to get over, sure, but Rodon and Ampadu have been a sparkling pair at the back together while James has 12 goals this season. Hereâs to whatâs next.

Here they are â¦
Preamble
Hello, hello, hello and welcome to coverage of Leeds Unitedâs trip to Watford. Itâs all going rather well for the boys from Elland Road, having gone 13 games unbeaten in the league, 12 of those wins, overturning Leicesterâs 17-point lead at the top in the process. Wild.
Meanwhile Watford have been doing what Watford do best: sacking the boss. Valérien Ismaël is their latest managerial departure, with Tom Cleverley in as interim â thatâs one to make you feel old. Cleverley began his stint in charge with a 1-0 win over Birmingham but his first game at Vicarage Road isnât going to be easy. Leeds won the reverse fixture earlier in the season 3-0 and Daniel Farke seems to love winning the Championship; he wonât settle for stopping at 13.
Kick-off is at 8pm GMT (BST, canât wait to see you boo). Drop me a line with your thoughts, worries, weekend plans, whatever. Cheers!
