Leeds United host Watford to Elland Road on Saturday afternoon, looking for their first home win of the Championship season.
Daniel Farke’s side drew 2-2 with Cardiff City in their first game before Luke Ayling saved a point against West Brom in a 1-1 draw. The club’s last home game was a 0-0 draw with Sheffield Wednesday on September 2. Leeds have had back-to-back away games at Millwall and Hull City since the international break, but their three-week wait for an Elland Road return will come to an end against Watford.
Farke has a handful of injury concerns heading into the game with the Hornets while there are just a couple of concerns for Watford. Below we run through all the players likely to miss the Elland Road outing.
1. Stuart Dallas – out
The Northern Irishman is back in team training after a long injury lay-off. However, Farke says he won’t be ready for a few weeks yet.
2. Ken Sema – out
Watford confirmed earlier this week he’d be out for a couple of weeks with the player ruled out longer than anticipated.
3. Ryan Porteous – doubt
The key defender limped off during the Hornets’ draw with West Brom. He’s rated as 50/50 to play against Leeds.
4. Joe Rodon – out
The defender was red carded at Hull and will miss the game due to suspension.
