Pre-game

There are some seriously grim conditions this evening at Vicarage Road - as Albion search for their first away win of the season.

It will in fact be their first win since Blackpool last season, and it is much needed.

The former boss Valerien Ismael is in the opposition dugout tonight, so one thing is for sure Albion know Watford will be hard to break down.

All eyes, as always will be on the team sheet. Carlos Corberan has insisted Jeremy Sarmiento will start one of the two games this week and for me, it'll be tonight rather than Millwall.

If I had to predict, it'll be up to three changes tonight with a busy game week ahead.

Team news

Were you surprised? I have to say I was to an extent.

It isn't shocking but I thought he may mix it up and try and keep things as fresh as possible back at home on Saturday.
