Is Leeds United vs Watford on TV? How to watch & stream Championship action live on Sky Sports and other platforms
How to tune into Leeds United’s next Championship fixture.
Leeds United are back in action this week following their 2-0 win over Sheffield United on Friday. Daniel Farke’s side kicked off the latest round of fixtures with a clash between two promotion rivals at Elland Road.
Thanks to goals from Pascal Struijk and Mateo Joseph, Leeds have leapfrogged the Blades into third place in the Championship table, ahead on goal difference. The fight for this season’s title and an automatic promotion spot is already heating up and the top six is sure to change multiple times before the end of the season.
Leeds are now unbeaten in their last five outings and will be hoping to extend their streak when they face Watford on Tuesday. The Hornets will travel to Elland Road off the back of their 3-0 defeat to Luton Town. It was a performance that manager Tom Cleverley has shouldered the bulk of the blame for but wants to see an immediate ‘reaction’ from his side.
If you’re not heading down to Elland Road to watch the match in person, here’s how you can tune into the action live from home.

Leeds latest team news
Following their win over Sheffield United, Farke has confirmed that there are no new fitness issues to be concerned about.
“No bigger concerns, no one picked up an injury during the game, nothing that should disturb us, we have our long term ones but all the others are available,” the boss said during his latest press conference.
Speaking on Watford’s struggles against Luton Town, Farke said: “It’s always easier if you don’t have to travel and the second topic is always the supporters. Sometimes young players can struggle a bit when the whole stadium is against you. I wouldn’t say this is the case in Watford’s case because they have unbelievably experienced players. It’s more or less the sum of all these reasons but actually we try wherever we play to have the same game on the pitch. I think in Watford’s case it is a coincidence because I am sure they will win games on the road but hopefully not on Tuesday.”
