Manchester United welcomes Watford to Old Trafford for this Premiership encounter. The home team are in 4th position with 46 points while the visitors are in 19th position with 18 points. Manchester United are not having the greatest season but they still holding onto fourth position. They are four points clear of West Ham and Arsenal, with the latter having three games in hand. They are unbeaten in their last seven league matches with four wins and three draws. United have only lost one of their 14 league matches since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked. They will be aggrieved as they led in some of these games before eventually settling for draws. Manchester have a strange record as they have the same number of league points at home as they do on the road. They have never lost a league game at home to Watford in their previous 13 meetings.

Watford are coming off a 4-1 thrashing at home at the hands of Crystal Palace. They have only won one of their last 13 league matches and this has seen them slide deep into the relegation zone. They are four points from safety but have played an extra game than 17th placed Newcastle. Watford have gained 11 points from their away matches this season while they only picked up 7 points at home. Following their win in the reverse fixture, Watford are attempting their first ever league double over Manchester United and have won two of the last three matches against the Red Devils. Prior to this Watford only won once in fifteen matches against Manchester United.
