West Ham had a real scare against Kidderminster Harriers at the weekend, and they’ll be hoping for a much more straightforward victory against Watford in the Premier League.
The Hammers face the Hornets on Tuesday evening, and while the Hertfordshire club have struggled this season, this may not be an easy game.
Indeed, Roy Hodgson is now in charge at Vicarage Road, and while Hodgson may not be the most modern of managers, he’s great at getting a team organised and structured.
West Ham may struggle to break Watford down, and if they’re to win this one, David Moyes will have to get his team selection spot on.
With that in mind, we’ve had a go at predicting the London club’s starting XI for this one.
We think that West Ham will make eight changes from the side that squeaked past Kidderminster.
Lukasz Fabianski returns in goal, while Vladimir Coufal, Craig Dawson and Aaron Cresswell return to the backline.
Declan Rice and Tomas Soucek act as the midfield pivot, while Pablo Fornals starts in a more advanced role.
Said Benrahma and Jarrod Bowen play on the wings, while Michail Antonio returns to spearhead the attack.
