    EARLY CHANGE FOR NORWICH
    Jacob Sorensen is going to have to be replaced. He landed awkwardly after clashing with Cleverley and has been struggling for a few minutes now. Kenny McLean comes on in his place.

    WILLIAMS CLATTERS DENNIS
    It's a dodgy off-the-ball challenge but he's escaped a booking. He'll certainly be on his last warning after that one...

    NORWICH CREATE A GOOD CHANCE
    Sissoko plays a weak ball into the middle of the pitch on the edge of the Watford penalty area, which is picked up by Sargent. He cuts inside and gets a shot away but it's over the bar. Sloppy from the host's.

    HOW THINGS STAND
    Watford sit in 17th, just a point above the drop zone, whilst Norwich occupy 18th place.
    The Hornets have two games in hand on tonight's opponents, but a loss this evening would see the sides switch places. Watford would fall into the bottom three whilst Norwich finally with their heads above water for the first time this season.
    Three points for the home side though will make great reading for Hornet's fans. They would go four points clear of the releagtion places.
    This is a big one!
