Flores feels it will be a difficult match against the Elland Road outfit and highlighted that they play with power, but give equal importance to passing too.
Flores was quoted as saying by the Watford Observer: “I have analysed Leeds’ game against Middlesbrough on Monday and their other matches with my staff.
“They have a good team and they play in a similar way to teams in the Premier League.
“They play with power but try to pass too. They have three players in the middle that want to play well. We will have to think carefully about this match.”
Sanchez’s side are almost certain to avoid relegation this season and will be focussed on tomorrow’s match to progress to the sixth round of the FA Cup.
