 Watford
Watford remain without Joel Ekstrand for the reception of Manchester United. Jurado is the only other doubt for head coach Quique Sanchez Flores.
The Hornets will probably make minimal changes to the starting XI and could remain unchanged here.
 Manchester United
Manchester United will have a thin squad for the trip to Watford with Wayne Rooney (illness) and Anthony Martial (foot) joining Antonio Valencia, Marouane Fellaini and Michael Carrick out injured.
Rooney and Martial's absence should give Memphis a rare chance to impress from the start. James Wilson is also an option, although he is unable to play 90 minutes.
Marcos Rojo may be rested after arriving back late from international duty with Argentina, which could bring Matteo Darmian, who missed the last match through suspension, back into the side with Ashley Young going to left-back.
Chris Smalling has confirmed he is fit to play after limping off in England's defeat to Spain last week.

Prediction
All of Watford's hopes are pinned on the fortunes of Odion Ighalo in front of goal. The Nigeria international has scored a greater proportion of his side's goals than any other player in the Premier League this season (64%) and no player has scored more goals this calendar year across England's top two tiers than the Watford frontman (22).
The Hornet's home matches haven't proven to be entertaining affairs thus far. There have only been seven goals in six matches at Vicarage Road and they will face a Manchester United team that have neither scored or conceded a league goal in each of their last two matches on the road. Watford are well organised and United notoriously struggle to break teams down, so the odd goal could shade this fixture, particularly as Anthony Martial is ruled out.
