They came close last week against Spurs, only for Dele Alli to deny them the three points with a late equaliser amid VAR controversy. please log in to view this image Bournemouth, on the other hand, managed to register their first clean sheet of the season in a 0-0 draw with Norwich last time out, and currently sit tenth in the league. They'll be hoping to gain their first win in four after a decent start to the season had left them in the top four at one stage. Watford have struggled up front and are likely to be without striker Danny Welbeck after he limped off with a muscle injury after just four minutes against Spurs. please log in to view this image They also look set to miss Etienne Capoue, Troy Deeney, Sebastian Prodl, Isaac Success and Marc Navarro. Roberto Perreyra and Daryll Janmaat are also doubtful, while Jose Holebas is suspended. Bournemouth have a lengthy injury list of their own with David Brooks, Charlie Daniels, Ryan Gosling, Lloyd Kelly, Simon Francis and Junior Stanislas all set to be out for Eddie Howe's side. Mike Dean has been announced as the referee for Watford's home game against Bournemouth this weekend. please log in to view this image Dean has issued two red cards from eight games this season, sending off Southampton's Kevin Danso and West Ham's Arthur Masuaku. He will be assisted by Ian Hussin and Darren Cann, while fourth official will be Tom Nield and Andre Marriner will be VAR. WHEREVER YOU ARE IN THE WORLD - ENJOY THE GAME
Alas, not going out in this weather with the bug I've picked up. A bit of a bonus with last night's result, nearly choked on my scrambled eggs when Mrs Fez told me the result! Of course it means nothing if Watford don't do the business this afternoon. If the boy's put in a shift like last week then we should get a positive result. Plus, of course, I won't be there to see it....
We need a win today followed by Norwich being well & truly spanked tomorrow so we move off the bottom.
We should feel sorry for Soton, 9-0 against MC would be embarrassing but against Leicester! Hope you feel better soon Fez. Will join you later.
Today is the 300th #watfordfc league match (excluding play-offs) of the Pozzo era. The Hornets' record reads: P 299 W 113 D 67 L 119 F 431 A 434 Pts 406
Afternoon all. Am looking for a stream, a bit early at the moment. All suggestions welcome though Enjoy the game all.
