Leeds United have more 'fight' than Everton in relegation battle amid promising Watford prediction

Leeds United have more 'fight' than Everton in the battle to stay in the Premier League and are all but safe. That's the view of former West Ham United forward Dean Ashton, who believes that the Whites will stretch their unbeaten run to four matches with a win over 19th-place Watford.

The Whites have picked up seven points from a possible nine available after beating Wolverhampton Wanderers and Norwich City, before the Whites drew 1-1 with Southampton last weekend. Jack Harrison gave Leeds the lead midway through the first-half, before James Ward-Prowse levelled with a sumptuous free-kick.

Meanwhile, Watford are three points behind 17th-place Everton and face an almighty fight if they want to get out of trouble. The Hornets also sit two points off Burnley but have played a game more than both teams, leaving them a massive task and a win over Leeds would give them some hope.
