Fernando Forestieri is named in Watford's starting lineup as the Hornets look to secure an automatic promotion place in the Championship this afternoon.

Watford have made one change to their starting lineup to face Leeds United as they push for automatic promotion to the Premier League this afternoon.

Fernando Forestieri returns in place of Matej Vydra as the Hornets look to move above second-placed Hull City, who are just one point ahead of them.

Meanwhile, manager Brian McDermott has been forced into three changes as Leeds look to move into the top half of the Championship table.

Adam Drury and Steve Morison come in for El Hadji Diouf and Rodolph Austin, who are both suspended following red cards last weekend, while Zac Thompson is preferred to Stephen Warnock.

Watford: Almunia, Doyley, Pudil, Cassetti, Chalobah, Ekstrand, Hogg, Anya, Abdi, Deeney, Forestieri

Leeds: Kenny, Peltier, Lees, Pearce, Thompson, Green, Varney, Tonge, Drury, Morison, McCormack
