Daniel Jebbison is cup-tied, having played for Bournemouth in the second round before his loan move to Vicarage Road.
Goalkeeper Daniel Bachmann and defender Francisco Sierralta are both undergoing scans to assess the extent of muscular injuries that forced them off early in Saturday's defeat at Norwich City. Neither are expected to be out for a significant period of time. In addition, Saturday's goalscorer Ryan Andrews won't travel for tomorrow's Carabao Cup tie at Manchester City due to a hamstring issue that needs careful management with this weekend in mind.

I don't have any hope for this one, but I am desperate for a win against Man City. The only top team during our spell in the Premier League that we didn't get at least one result against.
I'm not one to hold a grudge, but... IMO they still owe us for our first ever meeting in 1982 at Maine Road. Joe Corrigan rather foolishly tangled with the brute that was Cally after only a couple of minutes and had to go off injured. They put one of their full backs, whose name escapes me, in goal in his place and the sod played the game of his life. We seemed to take pity on them for a long while, sitting back rather than playing our normal high-tempo game - but then decided enough was enough and gave them a statistical battering. Unfortunately they scored a late-ish goal, the only one of the match, which saw them go top of the table - had we won, we would have been deservedly top instead. They later got their comeuppance when they were relegate at the end of the season. I suspect that GT would have had a few choice words for our players after the game - they basically threw it away.
Even with these eight mooted changes the task looks impossible... Pep Guardiola to make eight changes, 'exceptional' £53m player starts - Man City predicted line-up vs Watford (manchestercity.news)
Am on holiday in N Greece so a stream would be welcome please. I don't think it would be reasonable to say enjoy the game all.
