Manchester United vs Watford
Manchester United’s form continues to be worrisome despite some progress under Ralf Rangnick. The Red Devils are playing a more fluent brand of football but continue to struggle to finish their chances in clinical fashion. The interim manager has overseen just one loss in 16 games but has seen the team play out a concerning seven draws along the way, with the latest being a 1-1 stalemate at Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League.
On the other hand, Watford’s campaign has borne a typically unstable look from the onset. Roy Hodgson is the third manager to take charge of the Hornets, who have lost three of the five games since Claudio Ranieri’s dismissal. As a result, only Norwich City are below Watford in the Premier League table, with 17th-placed Newcastle United four points clear.
The reverse fixture was Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s final game in charge of Manchester United, who suffered an embarrassing 4-1 defeat at Vicarage Road in November.

Anthony Elanga could be given a starting role after his goalscoring role off the bench in Madrid.
Joao Pedro and Juraj Kucka are both available for Watford after overcoming knocks, while Joshua King might be fit after a back issue. Peter Etebo (quad) is nearing a return but misses out today alongside Nicolas Nkoulou (hamstring).

Manchester United have never lost a home league game against Watford (W11 D2). They have not faced any side more often at home in their league history without suffering defeat (also 13 vs Hull City). But the Hornets are looking to complete their first-ever league double over Manchester United; they have won two of their last three against the Red Devils in the top-flight, having won just one of their previous 15 before this (L14).
