vs
Watford v Chelsea
Watford: Jordan Stewart is back
after he missed the Hornets' last two matches due to a damaged calf
muscle. Jay DeMerit made his international debut for the United
States in a friendly against Guatemala during the week, and will be
included if he can shake off the effects of the long flight. Marlon
King remains absent with a knee injury, but could make a surprise
return before the end of the season.
Hameur BOUAZZA is Watford's top scorer with five goals, and with
four in the Premiership.
Chelsea: Frank Lampard should be
fit after having a lightweight plaster cast fitted to protect a
fractured bone in his wrist. Chelsea have no further injury worries
ahead of their trip to struggling Watford tomorrow. Joe Cole
(foot), Michael Essien (knee) and Wayne Bridge (knee) remain
sidelined.
Didier DROGBA is the highest scoring Premiership player this season
with 29 goals, 18 of which are League goals.
