Team News

Watford
Coventry
  • Tom Cleverley could hand full league debuts to Kevin Keben, Festy Ebosele and Daniel Jebbison after bleeding in his new additions during the international break.
  • Central midfielder Imran Louza is the home side's only injury concern for Saturday's clash.
  • Tatsuhiro Sakamoto picked up an ankle injury during the defeat against Norwich and will miss the trip to Vicarage Road on Saturday.
  • Ben Sheaf returned to training at the beginning of the week, but it remains to be seen whether he is fit enough to make his first start of the season this weekend.

Prediction

  • Watford went behind inside two minutes against Sheffield United after Daniel Bachmann scored an early own goal, and the Hornets were unable to produce a response.
  • Prior to that defeat, Tom Cleverley's men were just one of two sides in the division - the other being Sunderland - with a 100% record in the Championship.
  • Coventry were tipped as strong play-off contenders heading into the season, but the Sky Blues have endured a slow start to the campaign.
  • Mark Robins' men were beaten 1-0 by a Borja Sainz-inspired Norwich side in their last league outing and have just one win to their name heading into gameweek five.
