Aidy Boothroyd has kept faith with the same starting line-up that were beaten at Preston North End in mid-week for this afternoon’s meeting with Blackpool at Vicarage Road.
There is just one change to the matchday 16, with Theo Robinson returning after his injury lay-off at the expense of Lionel Ainsworth.
Like their opponents, Blackpool were also beaten 2-0 on their travels on Tuesday night at Cardiff City, but, like Boothroyd, Simon Grayson has also selected an unchanged team.
Watford: Lee; Doyley, DeMerit, Ward, Sadler; Smith, Eustace, O’Toole, Harley; Rasiak, Hoskins. Substitutes: McAnuff, Williamson, Robinson, Mariappa, Tyler.
Blackpool: Rachubka; Barker, Edwards, Evatt, Coid; Taylor-Fletcher, Southern, Jorgensen, Vaughan; Burgess, Gow. Substitutes: Broomes, Hammill, Fox, Camara, Mitchley.
