It’s a big game for…

Younes Kaboul. The Frenchman plied his trade for Sunday’s visitors for five years and will want to get one up on his old club. Watford haven’t kept a clean sheet since their 1-0 win against Hull back in October, and Kaboul would love to end that streak here today.

Best stat…

29. The last time Watford triumphed against Tottenham was 29 years ago back in the 1986/87 season, when the Hornets secured a 1-0 home win. Despite seeming like a long while, it’s only ten games without a win. Only.

Remember when…

A Kieran Trippier goal just after the hour helped Spurs claim a 1-0 win in their last meeting.

Player to watch…

Troy Deeney. The Watford striker racked up his 100th goal for the Hornets in the 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace and will be keen to build on it. That was his first goal since October and now he needs to spearhead the Watford attack by picking up some momentum by way of goalscoring.

KICK-OFF

Away we go at a very wet and windy Vicarage Road.

[1 January 2017 13:32 · Samuel Lovett]

1 min: An early free-kick wide on the left to Spurs as Rose is fouled. Eriksen swings it in and Gomes comes out with a good, strong punch.

[1 January 2017 13:34 · Samuel Lovett]

3 mins: Spurs pressing game already in full flow as the hassle the Watford players on the ball. The ball really moving on the wet surface too.

[1 January 2017 13:37 · Samuel Lovett]

6 mins: First effort on goal and it comes from Son for Spurs, who finds a lot of room 30 yards out and shoots left-footed but it's easily held by Gomes.

[1 January 2017 13:39 · Samuel Lovett]

8 mins: Wanyama wins Spurs their first corner of the afternoon. Cathcart clears for Watford.

[1 January 2017 13:41 · Samuel Lovett]

10 mins: Spurs certainly the better side in the opening 10 minutes. Trippier swings a cross into the area but it drifts out for a throw in to Watford.

[1 January 2017 13:42 · Samuel Lovett]

11 mins: Big penalty appeal for Spurs as Eriksen's shot strikes Capoue on the arm inside the area. It would have been harsh, Capou was only a few yards away when Eriksen hit it.

[1 January 2017 13:45 · Samuel Lovett]

14 mins: Amrabat plays the ball forward towards Ighalo but the Watford forward doesn't anticipate and possession is wasted. Watford haven't really got going in this one yet.
