Leeds team news: Gnonto update, three ruled out pre-Watford
Leeds United host Watford this week looking to make it back-to-back wins at Elland Road after seeing off Sheffield United on Friday night.
Daniel Farke’s Leeds side came out deserved 2-0 winners when Sheffield United came to Elland Road on Friday night.
A Yorkshire derby presented Leeds with an opportunity to demonstrate their quality as one of the title favourites, and they proved their point thanks to goals from Pascal Struijk and Mateo Joseph.
Leeds team news pre-Watford: Three players out, no new injuries
Once again, the turnaround is swift following Leeds’ win over the Blades on Friday night, now preparing to welcome Watford to LS11 on Tuesday night.
However, there are no new issues for Farke to contend with against Tom Cleverley’s Hornets in just over 24 hours’ time.
Speaking in his pre-match press conference, Farke revealed that his squad came through the win over Chris Wilder’s side unscathed, meaning there are no fresh setbacks.
Farke did comment on Willy Gnonto’s shoulder issue that was causing him severe discomfort during the first half, almost substituting the winger for Manor Solomon after 10 minutes, before the Italian continued.
The manager revealed that Gnonto has undergone scans on the issue and he has only suffered minor bruising.
