DANIEL FARKE insists Leicester remain the Championship favourites despite Leeds currently topping the table.
Leeds have slashed Leicester's 17-point advantage and went above them on goal difference before the international break.
But, speaking ahead of Leeds' showdown with Watford tonight, Farke insists Enzo Maresca's side remain the team to beat.
Only a point separates the top three sides in the Championship, but Farke said: "No, we're not favourites because Leicester have a game in hand and I expect them to take points from it.
"Then they will have the best possible option. Those are just the facts and that's the reality."
