Manchester United Form


Manchester United are challenging at the top of the Premier League. The Red Devils are undefeated in seven their last eight matches in all competitions.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side won 2-0 against Everton in the League Cup quarter-finals. Edinson Cavani and Anthony Martial scored late goals at Goodison Park.

Man United returned to the EPL with a 2-2 draw at Leicester and 1-0 home win against Wolves with Marcus Rashford scoring the winner in added time.

Manchester United then moved level with Liverpool at the top of the table after a 2-1 home win against Aston Villa. Martial opened the scoring and Fernandes scored the winner from the penalty spot.

United crashed out of the League Cup in the semi-finals after a 2-0 home defeat to Manchester City. It was a close contest but they failed to take their chances.

Manchester United Team News


Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani is suspended. 18-year-old forward Amad Diallo Traore recently signed from Atalanta but is unlikely to feature just yet.

Look for Solskjaer to make changes here with Alex Telles, Eric Bailly, Axel Tuanzebe, Nemanja Matic, Donny van de Beek, Dan James, Juan Mata and Mason Greenwood all pushing for a start against Watford.

Watford Form


Watford are currently 6th in the Championship as they seek promotion. The Hornets drew 1-1 against Brentford with Troy Deeney scoring from the penalty spot.

Vladimir Ivic’s side then lost 2-0 at Huddersfield despite having 58% possession and 21-10 shots. Ivic was sacked after the match and replaced by Xisco.

Xisco’s first match in charge was a 1-0 home win against league leaders Norwich. Ismaila Sarr scored the winner in a match where they were on the back foot for large periods. 

Watford’s last match was a 2-1 defeat at Swansea. Andre Gray assisted Tom Cleverley for the opener but they couldn’t hold on at Liberty Stadium.

Watford midfielder James Garner is on loan from Manchester United and can’t face his parent club.

Central defenders Craig Cathcart and Christian Kabasele are injured alongside midfielders Tom Dele-Bashiru and Domingos Quina.
