    Watford - Wolverhampton Wanderers


    Watford striker Troy Deeney is struggling with a dead leg and will need a fitness test before kick-off.
    The Hornets also have problems in defence with Gabriele Angella suspended, Joel Ekstrand (back) and Gabriel Tamas (cruciate) all sidelined.
    Wolves head coach Kenny Jackett expects to pick from an unchanged squad for their trip to Vicarage Road.
    Striker Nouha Dicko did not suffer any reaction to a hamstring injury after two months out and should play again.


    Head-to-Head
    • The last meeting ended as a 1-1 draw at Molineux in the Championship in March 2013.
    • Watford have won only one of the last four meetings. Their only win since 2008 was 2-1 at Vicarage Road in the Championship in November 2012.
    • Both sides have won two of the last four meetings at Vicarage Road in all competitions.

    Watford


    • Watford have won their last three games, after losing all of their previous four games.
    • Watford won their last home game 2-1 against Wigan on 13 December - their first win in three games at Vicarage Road.

    Wolves


    • Wolves have won only one of their last eight games. Their only win since October was 1-0 at Sheffield Wednesday on 13 December.
    • Wolves have lost three of their last four away games, winning the most recent one against Sheffield Wednesday.

    Have to be wary of the ex in Danny Graham and of course Kenny Jackett.

    However I think we will win 2-1 even if Deeney is injured.

    Hopefully Jokanovic won't make loads of changes which affect the side just because we have the Cardiff game on Sunday.

    Hoban in for Angella?

    Difficult game this, but going for a 2-1 home wine. Vydra and FF to score...

    Glad Troy is fit, he makes a big difference to the confidence of others!

    Am I being fussy? I really think Anya's delivery is poor. Yes, he's quick. Yes, he's won corners. But he can't get that ball in. That full back is all over him. And Paredes' passing seems weak too. No wonder Troy is getting testy.
    Didn't agree with the yellow card, the conditions are difficult and yes, Troy was thundering, but he played and won the ball. The ref was running in a la Angella second yellow. <doh>

    We were rubbish against a team that had been set up well to stop our mid-field getting any real control of the game. Very disappointing display.
