Watford host Derby County this evening looking to build on two wins from their last two matches.
The Hornets look more of an attacking prospect with their new 4-3-3 formation that Xisco Munoz is likely to stick with yet again.
Here's how I think they will line up tonight.
Formation: 4-3-3
GK: Daniel Bachmann
The goalkeeper is enjoying his football at the moment and will be looking to continue that tonight.
RB: Kiko Femenia
One of the best players so far this season and adds a lot in both attack and defence.
CB: Francisco Sierralta
Contributed to another clean sheet on Tuesday and continues to look good.
CB: William Troost-Ekong
Was given a rest in midweek and could be set to return to the starting XI after being given a chance to freshen up.
LB: Adam Masina
Unlikely to lose his place after another solid performance.
CM: Will Hughes
Adds so much to the team at the base of midfield and is likely to play there again.
CM: Tom Cleverley
Helped to run the show against Preston and has made himself one of the team's most important players this season.
CM: Nathaniel Chalobah
Another improved display again on Tuesday. I'd expect him to play again tonight.
LW: Ken Sema
Created the chance for Joao Pedro to win the penalty at Preston and is benefitting from the 4-3-3.
RW: Ismaila Sarr
Wasn't quite at his best against Preston, but still offers the best route to goal for Watford and if he's fit, he has to play.
ST: Joao Pedro
Won and scored the winning penalty on Tuesday and is looking to make himself a mainstay up front with Troy Deeney out injured.
