Manchester United’s first game back after the international break takes them down south to Vicarage Road to play Watford in the Premier League as they aim to get back to winning ways and close the gap on the top four.
Watford are also in need of three points as they look to distance themselves further from the relegation zone with Claudio Ranieri looking for his second win as the Hornets' boss.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is in desperate need of three points to keep himself in the United job, but a poor result here could have some serious consequences for the Norwegian, as he hangs on to his position by a thread.

Equally, Ranieri has lost three of his first four games since taking over at Vicarage Road and with Watford’s owners’ reputation of sacking managers, he can’t be too careful either.
Both sides are struggling with a number of injuries in the squad, which could help the result swing one way or another.

A 1-0 victory for the hosts over their Championship opposition, courtesy of a fifth minute strike from Scott McTominay, was enough to send the Red Devils into the Fourth Round of the FA Cup.

Team news
Ranieri could be without up to five players for the visit of Man Utd on Saturday, with one suspension and four injuries impacting his options.
Christian Kabasele (thigh) could be in contention but there is uncertainty over the conditions of Ken Sema (knee) and Kwadwo Baah (ankle), while Peter Etebo (thigh) is out until next year. Juraj Kucka (suspended) will miss out after being sent off in the last game against Arsenal.
What Man United players have performed well this season? Vote below.
The trip to Watford comes too early for Raphael Varane (thigh), who is out until next month, and Paul Pogba (thigh) could be out for the rest of the year after picking up an injury whilst away with France.
There could be late decisions made on Luke Shaw (concussion) and Scott McTominay (illness), as well as Edinson Cavani who is being assessed for discomfort in one of his tendons.
Cristiano Ronaldo will be expected to lead the line, but there could be inclusions for Jadon Sancho, Mason Greenwood and Jesse Lingard after the trio were left out of the recent England squad.
