John Terry starts for Chelsea

Captain John Terry has been included in the Chelsea starting lineup for tonight's trip to Watford.

The 35-year-old announced on Sunday that he was to leave the club in the summer, having been informed that he will not be offered a new contract.

Nevertheless, he has been picked by interim manager Guus Hiddink to start at Vicarage Road this evening alongside Kurt Zouma in the heart of the defence.

Eden Hazard remains on the bench following his recent recovery from injury, where he is joined by England international Gary Cahill.

As for the hosts, head coach Quique Flores has made two changes to his team, with Sebastian Prodl and Jose Holebas taking the place of Miguel Britos and Nathan Ake.

Watford: Gomes; Paredes, Prodl, Cathcart, Holebas; Behrami, Watson, Capoue; Jurado; Deeney, Ighalo Subs: Pantilimon, Nyom, Anya, Suarez, Guedioura, Abdi, Amrabat

Chelsea: Courtois; Ivanovic, Zouma, Terry, Azpilicueta; Mikel, Matic; Willian, Fabregas, Oscar; Costa Subs: Begovic, Cahill, Baba Rahman, Loftus-Cheek, Kenedy, Traore, Hazard
