Team News: Troy Deeney, Sebastian Prodl back for Watford

Deeney, Prodl back for Watford

Troy Deeney and Sebastian Prodl have returned to Watford's starting lineup for this evening's Premier League meeting with West Bromwich Albion at Vicarage Road.

Skipper Deeney was only well enough for a place on the bench in Saturday's 1-0 win over Sunderland due to illness, while Prodl comes back into the fold in place of injured defender Younes Kaboul.

There is also a place on the bench for youngster Dion Pereira, who is named as part of the Hornets' squad for the first time, as they go in search of just a second win in 18 attempts against Albion.

In terms of the visitors, boss Tony Pulis has stuck with the side that held Manchester United to a goalless draw on Saturday, meaning that fit-again Matty Phillips must settle for a place on the bench.

Phillips takes the place of winger Rekeem Harper in the only change to Albion's squad, with the "doubts" Pulis had over a couple of his players proving to be nothing serious.

Watford: Gomes, Cathcart, Prodl, Britos, Holebas, Doucoure, Cleverley, Capoue, Niang, Amrabat, Deeney Subs: Pantilimon, Mariappa, Success, Zuniga, Janmaat, Okaka, D Pereira

West Bromwich Albion: Foster, Dawson, McAuley, Evans, Nyom, Livermore, Fletcher, Brunt, Chadli, McClean, Robson-Kanu Subs: Myhill; Yacob, Morrison, Rondon, Phillips, M Wilson, Field
