Follow live coverage as Watford face Middlesbrough in the Championship today. An increasingly competitive second tier in English football remains an intense and exciting competition, with the prize of a place in the Premier League on offer at the end of the season.

Ahead of another international break, they can solidify that with another win at Watford, who come into the game off the back of a 3-0 defeat at Preston. That was their third defeat in five, though all three have come away from home, with Tom Cleverley's side unbeaten at home this term.
