How Watford could line up against Arsenal

How Watford could line up against Arsenal

Watford head into Saturday's Premier League encounter at Arsenal still sitting in fourth place in the top-flight standings.

The Hornets have failed to win either of their last two league matches, but only Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea sit above Javi Gracia's side.

The Hertfordshire-based outfit have had decisions go against them over the past week, and it has led to three games without a victory.

Gracia has a number of selection dilemmas this weekend, and here Sports Mole looks at how his side could line up at the Emirates Stadium.


Out: Daryl Janmaat (knee), Tom Cleverley (Achilles), Gerard Deulofeu (ankle), Christian Kabasele (suspended) Doubtful: Troy Deeney (foot)

Gracia has been dealt a blow by the news that Daryl Janmaat is likely to be sidelined until November with a knee injury.

That development means that the Spaniard will be without two first-choice defenders this weekend, providing that the club are not successful with their appeal against Christian Kabasele's dismissal against Tottenham Hotspur.

Kiko Femenia and Adrian Mariappa are expected to deputise for the pair at right-back and centre-back respectively.

Troy Deeney should be passed fit despite struggling with a foot injury.
