Team News: Watford make two changes ahead of Bournemouth clash

Watford have made two changes to their starting XI ahead of Saturday's Premier League home clash with Bournemouth.

Miguel Britos and Richarlison, who began the 5-0 loss at Liverpool two weeks ago, are dropped in place of Daryl Janmaat and Will Hughes.

Defender Craig Cathcart, meanwhile, remains on the bench after making his first appearance for seven months for Northern Ireland last Saturday.

Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe has also made two changes to the side which came from behind to win 2-1 at home to West Bromwich Albion last time out.

Simon Francis is out injured, so in comes Ryan Fraser at right-back, while Adam Smith drops to the bench as Charlie Daniels returns to the starting lineup.

Watford: Karnezis; Janmaat, Prodl, Mariappa, Holebas; Doucoure, Capoue; Hughes, Femenia, Pereyra; Deeney Subs: Gomes, Cathcart, Ndong, Richarlison, Lukebakio, Gray, Okaka

Bournemouth: Begovic; Fraser, S. Cook, Ake, Daniels; Ibe, Gosling, L. Cook, Stanislas; King, Wilson Subs: Boruc, Smith, Simpson, Surman, Arter, Pugh, Defoe
