Watford have been handed a double injury boost ahead of their trip to face Manchester United in the Premier League this weekend.
Nigel Pearson's side travel to Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon knowing a positive result for his side could be vital in their battle against relegation this season.
Watford head into the match 19th in the division but know a win would likely see them climb out of the relegation as we enter the business end of the season.
The Hornets are set to be boosted ahead of kick-off with Kiko Femenía and Ismaïla Sarr both in contention to return, while Daryl Janmaat is also nearing a comeback from his injury lay-off.
“We've had a very positive week,” Pearson said.
“Sarr and Kiko are back in full training which is good, but I suppose before the final selection for the weekend the conversation will be about managing risk because I want them back to stay back. I always have to detach myself somewhat from, 'Let's get the player straight back in'. It's about making decisions that protect us over the longer term.”
“We are making real progress now [with injuries]. Hopefully Janmaat will play in the 23s next week and that means everybody is more or less available for selection.”

Pls lets not over brag & underrate Watford, they were the ones that hurt us the last time we met them. I know it is not easy for a team to win us home & away but lets not underrate them because a draw with them might just spoil it for us

I think right now this is the best formation for Man Utd, ole should cultivate the habit of leading from first half before test other players in the game
