Team News: Watford welcome back Miguel Britos, Valon Behrami

Britos, Behrami return for Watford

Miguel Britos and Valon Behrami have been reinstated in Watford's starting lineup for this afternoon's Premier League clash with Everton at Vicarage Road.

The duo return from suspension to take their places in midfield - the only two changes made by manager Walter Mazzarri from the 3-1 defeat to West Bromwich Albion seven days ago.

Christian Kabasele drops down to the bench, while Roberto Pereyra misses out on inclusion due to a one-match ban for last week's incident late on at The Hawthorns.

Everton boss Ronald Koeman has also made two alteration to his side from the 1-1 draw with Manchester United last weekend, with Gerard Deulofeu coming in for long-term injury victim Yannick Bolasie and James McCarthy replacing Tom Cleverley.

Seamus Coleman is deemed fit enough to start for the Toffees despite also picking up an injury in the meeting with United six days ago, with the visitors aiming to make it 12 without defeat against their opponents.

Watford: Gomes; Zuniga, Prodl, Britos, Holebas; Guedioura, Behrami, Capoue; Amrabat, Okaka, Deeney Subs: Pantilimon, Kabasele, Janmaat, Watson, Success, Sinclair, Ighalo

Everton: Stekelenburg; Coleman, Williams, Funes Mori, Baines; Gueye, Barry, McCarthy; Deulofeu, Lukaku, Mirallas Subs: Joel, Jagielka, Holgate, Cleverley, Barkley, Lennon, Valencia
