Manchester United face a tough task on Tuesday night as they travel to the in-form Watford in the Premier League.

The Hornets are coming off a 3-0 away win at Newcastle and sit eighth in the table after a thoroughly impressive start to life under manager Marco Silva.

United won at the weekend as well, but they could only manage a narrow 1-0 victory at home to Brighton.

Nevertheless, the win kept them in second place in the Premier League and they remain the best defence in the division having only conceded six goals in 13 games.
