Watford have recorded four wins from their last six league games. The Hornets are now in a strong position to challenge for a playoff spot. Head coach Slaven Bilic, who took over from Rob Edwards, didn’t have the smoothest of early periods, losing four of his opening 11 matches. However, six wins and a draw came from the other fixtures. Watford’s latest victory came against Reading (2-0) on November 9, courtesy of a brace from Joao Pedro.
As for Hull City, new boss Liam Rosenior, took charge of the team, early in November. In his first three competitive games, the Tigers managed to collect four points, enough to move out of the relegation zone. Rosenier’s primary objective would be to strengthen the defence, which has been one of the worst in the league thus far, having conceded six more goals than anyone else. Meanwhile, their latest outing against Turkish side Trabzonspor, in a friendly fixture, ended in a 1-1 draw after Trezeguet’s early opener was canceled out by Ozan Tufan, from the penalty spot, twenty minutes from time.
Watford probable starting lineup: Bachmann, Gaspar, Troost-ekong, Kabasele, Kayembe, Choudhury, Sema, Pedro, Kalu, Davis
Hull City probable starting lineup: Baxter, Christie, Figueiredo, Jones, Greaves, Woods, Seri, Docherty, Tufan, longman, Pelkas
