Manchester United vs Watford LIVE: What time is it, what channel is it on, where can I watch it, odds and more

A look ahead to the game at Old Trafford

Premier League season in numbers

Manchester United secured their highest finish since winning the league in Sir Alex Ferguson’s final season with their drab draw at West Ham on Thursday. Second in the league and an FA Cup final to would be a very successful season for most Premier League clubs, but it feels a little disappointing, given how far ahead Manchester City are and that other big rivals Liverpool are in the Champions League final

By the end of the West Ham game Jose Mourinho’s side were time-wasting to secure the draw, which is an indictment in and of itself. They face Watford on the final day with second guaranteed and nothing to play for.

Given Watford’s history, the chances are not good that Javi Gracia is still in charge for the beginning of next season. There will be immense player turnover again, and Watford’s team will likely be reshaped under new management for another relegation scrap. Manchester United may rest players ahead of the FA Cup Final, and thus Watford may have a chance for a first win at Old Trafford since 1978.

What time does it start?

Manchester United vs Watford kicks off at 3pm.

Where can I watch it?

Highlights from the game can be seen on Match of the Day from 10.30pm on Sunday.

It’s a big game for…

Michael Carrick makes his final appearance as a professional footballer, captaining Manchester United in his 464th appearance for the club. The 36-year-old is joining the club’s coaching setup for next year.

Best Stat

24 – The number of times Heurelho Gomes has punched the ball in Premier League action this season, tied with Jonas Lössl for most in the league.

Remember when…

Camilo Zuniga and Troy Deeney’s late goals took Watford past Manchester United in September of 2016. The 3-1 defeat was United’s third loss in eight days.

Player to watch…

Ashley Young scored twice against his former club in November. The 32-year old is one of Mourinho’s favourites and will presumably be headed for Russia with England after performing strongly throughout this season.

Five in the last six for Wilfred Zaha. Where would Palace be without him? Patrick Van Aanholt delivers a good ball and Zaha finishes well. The best player outside of the top-six?

BOURNEMOUTH LEVEL! IT IS JOSH KING!

THE EIGHTH AT WEMBLEY AND LEICESTER ARE BACK LEVEL! JAMIE VARDY AGAIN! HOW MANY MORE?!?

[13 May 2018 16:35 · Harry Latham-Coyle]

Josh King receives a lovely pass from Charlie Daniels in the channel down the left and produces a very competent finish. 1-1 at Turf Moor.

Mahrez assists Vardy again! 4-4. But wait...

5-4!!! WHAT ON EARTH?!? 30 GOALS THIS SEASON FOR HARRY KANE!

[13 May 2018 16:38 · Harry Latham-Coyle]

Superb by Harry Kane, who looks to be recapturing his form ahead of the World Cup. Cuts inside and curls a lovely finish into the corner.

EVERTON BACK IN IT! OUMAR NIASSE!

2-0 TO CRYSTAL PALACE! PROVIDER TURNS SCORER AS PATRICK VAN AANHOLT SCORES!

[13 May 2018 16:41 · Harry Latham-Coyle]

Oumar Niasse hit the post not too long ago, and now he has a goal. He pounces on a loose ball in the West Ham box and scores. West Ham still ahead though. 2-1.
