Here is how Watford and Manchester United will line up for this afternoon’s clash:

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho

Manchester United travel to Vicarage Road this weekend to take on a Watford side that will be looking to build on their 4-2 victory against West Ham United last time out.

The Hornets are currently 12th in the Premier League table with four points from four matches while United are sixth with nine points to date.

Jose Mourinho’s side have lost back-to-back games against Manchester City in the league and Feyenoord in Europe and they cannot afford to slip up again, with the pressure on the expensively assembled side mounting.

United make wholesale changes this afternoon after resting some of their key personnel for the Europa League, with Wayne Rooney, Antonio Valencia and Luke Shaw all returning after being rested for the trip to the Netherlands.

A win for United will put them back on track but Watford will know they can get one over Mourinho’s men and climb the table themselves if they play to their full potential.
