Watford will look to extend the space between them and the relegation zone in their Premier League match against West Ham on Tuesday.
Claudio Ranieri’s side are just two points from the danger zone, with the Watford coach having told the club website recently: “The ambition is to be safe at the end, the Premier League is an important thing for Watford and for me, this is the goal and the target I have in my mind.”
Due to Covid-related disruptions, Watford have not competed since 10 December, while West Ham suffered a 3-2 defeat by Southampton on Boxing Day as their poor recent run continued.
