Preview...

It’s a big game for…

Walter Mazzarri. Speculation has been rife about whether the Italian’s days are numbered at Watford. His team have taken one win from their last eight games and there are growing murmurs that his players are unhappy with his style of management.

A win against a Middlesbrough team, who have won just once in their last 23 away games in the Premier League, could ease tensions somewhat. However, it won’t help that a whole host of key players are missing, including Roberto Pereyra, Nordin Amrabat and Adlene Guedioura.

Best stat…

Troy Deeney likes playing against Middlesbrough. The veteran Hornets striker has scored six goals in his last eight games against the side.

Remember when…

On-loan Tom Cleverley scored the only goal of the game for Watford in their 2009 win over Middlesbrough at the Riverside stadium? The goal, and more importantly the result, all but confirmed Gareth Southgate’s later dismissal.

Player to watch…

Alvaro Negredo. Despite Middlesbrough’s patchy form, the on-loan Spaniard has had a hand in the last seven goals for Boro, scoring six and assisting one. His aerial prowess could come in handy against a Watford team who have conceded a joint-league high 10 headed goals, level with Stoke.
