Burnley v Watford

Nearly a home sell out.
After playing against two former Claret strikers last week we now get the chance to play another inked one.
Andre seems to have started well this year and a win against our next opponents Fulham last week, despite losing Richarlison, with Pereyra getting their two goals.

Our squad now worth £188.75m taking us to 7th bottom with Ben G £15m, Vydra £10m and Joe £7m boosting us up from £141m early in the summer, is now valued more than Watford at £165m. One we need to win.

Southampton squad said to be worth £266m certainly didn’t look worth it.
Fulham now £248m!!

Was on the pitch for the warm up at Southampton and was reserve keeper on the bench. So was Gibson.

Vydra not fit yet, but not injured.

Played Sunday and didn’t get injured, though some Southampton beasties may have given him a bite or two! Lol

Watford head coach Javi Gracia may name an unchanged side following last week's win over Brighton.
That would have Andre and Deeney up front. Andre is not expecting to get booed and says he loved his time here.

They remain without midfielder Tom Cleverley, Gerard Deulofeu, Nathaniel Chalobah and Stefano Okaka.

For Burnley Chris Wood, Johann Berg Gudmundsson and James Tarkowski are among those expected to return.

Burnley have won three of their last four matches against Watford and completed the league double over them last season.
Watford have recorded just one victory in eight games versus the Clarets, a 2-0 home win in February 2017.
The Hornets have not won at Turf Moor since a 3-2 victory in the second tier in April 2004.

Paul Tierney is the ref. His last game was here v Bournemouth last season. Rated near the bottom of PL refs.
