Team News: Two changes for Watford against Norwich City

Two changes for Watford against Norwich

Watford manager Quique Flores has made two changes to his side for this afternoon's visit of Norwich City to Vicarage Road.

After last weekend's 3-2 away win at Aston Villa, Flores has brought Ikechi Anya into the midfield in place of Juan Carlos Paredes.

Anya will play alongside Jose Manuel Jurado, who has been preferred to Almen Abdi as he is rested with Adlene Guedioura after the pair picked up knocks at Villa Park.

Heurelho Gomes is fit and able to continue in goal for the Hornets, despite being taken to hospital with a head injury last weekend.

For the visitors, there are three changes, one of which is in goal as Johny Ruddy is dropped to the bench and replaced by his near-namesake Declan Rudd between the posts.

Nathan Redmond and Alexander Tettey are brought into the midfield in place of Gary O'Neil and Wes Hoolahan, with the latter not in the matchday squad.

Watford: Gomes; Nyom, Britos, Cathcart, Ake; Capoue, Watson; Anya, Deeney, Jurado; Ighalo Subs: Arlauskis, Holebas, Paredes, Guedioura, Abdi, Diamanti, Oulare

Norwich City: Rudd; Wisdom, Bennett, Bassong, Olsson; Redmond, Tettey, Dorrans, Brady; Howson; Grabban Subs: Ruddy, Martin, Mbokani, Jerome, Mulumbu, O'Neil, Odjidja
