Team News
Watford
Stoke
- Roberto Pereyra will miss Saturday's welcome of Stoke after picking up a hamstring injury in Watford's 4-2 defeat to Chelsea last weekend, but he could return before the international break. Andre Carillo will deputise in his absence against Stoke.
- Sebastian Prodl and Younes Kaboul are both sidelined here but Marco Silva is hopeful both will return to training ahead of their trip to Everton next weekend.
- Xherdan Shaqiri missed Stoke's 2-1 defeat at home to Bournemouth last weekend but is expected to return to first-team action on Saturday, while Thomas Edwards is also back in training.
- Peter Crouch is an injury doubt and a late decision will be made on his involvement, although he wouldn't be expected to start anyway.
- All in all, few changes are expected from Mark Hughes despite Stoke's terrible form.
Watford will not lose, but goals will not be more than 3
Stoke will score and can even win or Hughes can be sacked soon, 2-2
@koziol.mutant It actually mystifies me that this Hughes guy still works as a manager...
I think it's gonna be a draw. 0-0 or 1-1
watford 3 - 4 stoke
Watford 2 - 0 Stoke
Watford WIN
