Arsenal continue Champions League push

The game will be played at Vicarage Road and the hosts begin the weekend in 19th place on 19 points while the visitors are in 6th place on 45 points.

Watford come into the game having picked up a point thanks to a 0-0 draw at Manchester United last weekend. It was a great result for The Hornets, who could easily have lost the match considering the chances missed by the opposition.

That result means Watford have gained four points from their three most recent Premier League fixtures including a 1-0 win at Aston Villa.

However, their home form has been poor and Watford have lost each of their last seven home games in all competitions.

In fact, they have recorded only one win from their last 13 home fixtures in all competitions and that came against Manchester United in the Premier League.

Watford have lost each of their last seven home Premier League matches and have failed to score a goal in three of their four most recent league games on home soil.

Arsenal make the trip to Vicarage Road on the back of a 2-1 home victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League.

It was an important victory for The Gunners in their pursuit of a top four place and they came from a goal down to score two goals in the final eight minutes of the match to take maximum points in dramatic circumstances.

That result means Arsenal have won their three most recent games, all of which have come in the Premier League. In addition to the victory over Wolves at home, Arsenal have beaten Wolves away and Brentford at home.

Trends show Arsenal have not lost in 8 of their last 9 matches in the Premier League and have won each of their last 3 on the road. Arsenal have kept a clean sheet in their last 2 away league games and have scored in each of their last 5 away Premier League matches.

Team news and Watford will be hoping both Ismaila Sarr and Kiko Femenia are available for selection. Nicolas Nkoulou is injured and Peter Etebo is doubtful.

Arsenal will be without Takehiro Tomiyasu due to injury and Emile Smith Rowe has an illness, meaning he could miss the game.
