Kiko Femina and Joao Pedro are in contention to feature this weekend after returning to full training. The former could go straight into the starting XI, though Craig Cathcart is on standby to fill in at right-back. Peter Etebo is available after missing Watford's cup tie with parent club Stoke in midweek, but Daniel Bachmann is an injury doubt for the home side. Watford's fringe players did not do enough against Stoke to force themselves into contention this weekend after losing 3-1 at home. Martin Dubravka is back in training but Karl Darlow will keep his place in goal after a strong showing last time out. Isaac Hayden is currently being preferred at centre-back to actual defenders Federico Fernandez and Fabian Schar. With Callum Wilson still sidelined, Allan Saint-Maximin will continue leading the line for Newcastle.
Watford were superb last weekend to beat fellow newly promoted side Norwich 3-1 away from home, with Ismaila Sarr running the show. Their fringe players then followed that up with a poor 3-1 defeat at home to Stoke in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday. Newcastle were not involved in the Carabao Cup in midweek so have had the full week to prepare after their 1-1 draw with Leeds last weekend. The Magpies are winless in six matches in all competitions this season and have failed to win any of their last four meetings with Watford. Stand out players Sarr and Allan Saint-Maximin are of course the players to watch out for when these two sides meet at Vicarage Road on Saturday. 1:1
Watford are undefeated in 9 of their last 10 matches against Newcastle in all competitions. Watford have conceded at least 2 goals in their last 3 home matches (Premier League). Newcastle have failed to win their last 5 matches (Premier League).
