Last updated : 07 May 2006 By Gary Calder

Leading Bookmakers, William Hill have installed Watford as the favourites to win the Coca-Cola Championship Play-offs following their stunning three goal victory at Crystal Palace yesterday.

The Golden Boys are now 5-6 to claim victory at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium in a fortnight, with Billy Davies' Preston North End priced up at 7-4.

Leeds United who travel to Deepdale for the second leg against Preston North End tomorrow evening (Monday) are a 9/2 shot, while Crystal Palace, who face a massive uphill task at Vicarage Road the following night have now drifted out to a 33-1 chance.
