Burnley v Watford preview

The Hornets travel to Turf Moor to take on Sean Dyche's Burnley in the Premier League Monday night. Mazzari's men will be look to secure their third win in a row after impressive victories against West Ham and Manchester United.

The Clarets come into the game after a relatively solid start back to life in the Premier League with 4 points from their opening 5 fixtures and a notable home triumph over Liverpool. However they are without win in their last 3 Premier League fixtures, but this is most certainly not an easy fixture for the Golden Boys as Burnley will see this as a must win game after their dip in form.

Team news:
The Clarets will be without star striker Andre Gray after he was suspended for 4 matches after homophobic tweets he posted in 2012. He will be gutted to miss the game, particularly because of his connection with our rivals Luton Town. They will also be without striker Ashley Barnes.

The Hornets will miss Right wing back Daryl Janmaat after he suffered a shoulder injury in last weeks win over Manchester United. Jose Holebas and Younes Kaboul also reportedly face late fitness tests. With that in mind we could see the introduction of Chelsea loanee Kenedy into the left wing back position and a return to the side for Nordin Amrabat.

Stat attack:
Troy Deeney could score his 100th goal for The Hornets Monday night as he currently sits on 98 following his goal from the spot last weekend.


My Prediction:
1-2 Watford- If we lose its my fault I never get these right!

Come on you 'Orns!
