Current odds:

Manchester City (-1.5): (TBD)

Watford (+1.5): (TBD)

 

•  Sergio Aguero is a doubt after he missed the 3-1 win over Bournemouth on Saturday and some reports suggest he could be out until the New Year, while Oleksandr Zinchenko sustained a broken nose in the victory and may miss out. Claudio Bravo, Kevin De Bruyne, Eliaquim Mangala and Benjamin Mendy are all sidelined for the road side. Fabian Delph, John Stones, Kyle Walker and David Silva could all come into the XI that featured from the off against Bournemouth, while Riyad Mahrez will also be pushing for a start.

•  Etienne Capoue is suspended after his red card in the 2-0 loss at Leicester on Saturday, with Nathaniel Chalobah in line to deputise for the Frenchman. Adalberto Penaranda and Tom Cleverley are both sidelined due to a lack of fitness, while Daryl Janmaat is a doubt. Javi Gracia could make a couple of changes to the side that lost at the weekend, with Troy Deeney, Christian Kabasele and Adam Masina among those who could come in.

•  After their 100% start to the season, the wheels look to have really come off for Watford, who now have just two wins to their name from their last 10. Things don’t get any easier for the Hornets here either as they welcome a Manchester City side unbeaten since September to Vicarage Road.

•  What’s more, City have won their last eight meetings with Watford, and have scored 11 goals in their last two visits to Vicarage Road. Watford may have been solid at the back under Gracia, but few will give them a fighting chance of keeping City out.
