Table-toppers prolonged their impressive unbeaten run with a decisive 3-1 result against a player-down Watford.

The Japanese winger added a third advantage just before the interval, while a Watford defender was shown a red card before the half.
Javi Gracia's team Score a Consolation Goal
A Watford player converted a penalty for the away squad, but it proved nothing more than a meaningless effort.

Jack Clarke was introduced from the bench to score the only strike in a one-nil win over West Brom.
Ipswich commanded the play but only secured the tie in the closing stages thanks to Clarke's fifth strike of the season.
Ryan Mason's side thought they had equalized in added time, but the header was disallowed for a foul in the penalty area.
