#2 Manchester City vs Watford
Man City is set to face Watford who are in a rich vein of form after getting 10 points in the last 5 matches. Pep on the other hand has some decisions to make with multiple injuries to the squad and a tricky fixture against Schalke coming up.

With a thin lead of just 1 point on the top, Man city must make sure they do not lose any points if they are to defend their title and remain in the race for the quadruple. But with injuries to defenders Laporte and Stones and midfielder De Bruyne, and suspensions for Otamendi and Fernandinho, Pep has some tough decisions to make. Who gets to partner Kompany? Would there be a change in formation for the Citizens?
While goalscoring isn't a big problem for Man City, they have trudged on with two 1-0 victories in their last two games. They must be careful of thwarting the centralized play of Watford and containing the pace of their forwards, especially Deulofeu. A win here would be a huge morale booster ahead of their cramped schedule in which they fight for 4 trophies simultaneously.
