Tottenham Hotspur are looking to keep pace with Premier League leaders Liverpool as Mauricio Pochettino’s side look for a fourth consecutive win of the season when they travel to Watford .
Spurs can join the Reds and Chelsea at the top of the table, but they face a Watford side that also boasts a 100 per cent record this season with three wins from three. But Spurs will be looking to take momentum from their victory over Manchester United last Monday night, and with Harry Kane and Lucas Moura both in-form, a testing day looks on the cards for the Hornets.
Watford manager Javi Gracia has a near-full-strength side to choose from, but Spurs are without injured goalkeeper and captain Hugo Lloris as well as midfielder Moussa Sissoko, while Son Heung-min remains on international duty. Erik Lamela is also a doubt as he faces a late fitness test at Vicarage Road.

FULL TIME: WATFORD 2-1 SPURS
WOW. They have made a great start to the season but which of you predicted this?
The Hornets continue their great form and join Liverpool and Chelsea on the top of the table with 12 points from a possible 12.
Spurs lose a game from a winning position for the first time in almost two years.
FULL TIME: BURNLEY 0-2 Manchester United
Manchester United cruise to three points with two goals from Romelu Lukaku propelling United back into the top half of the table while Burnley continue to suffer in 19th.
The second half became a bit more troubling for the Reds as Paul Pogba missed a penalty with Marcus Rashford sent off shortly after but it's just the tonic needed for Jose Mourinho and United with a clean sheet to boot.
