Watford v Tottenham: Key players

Watford FC v Crystal Palace - Premier League

Watford:

Will Hughes runs down the flank, cleverly occupies spaces in the box and initiates counter-attacks. The Weybridge-born winger is just what Watford need against a dominating side like Tottenham.

Kane trying to wriggle past opponents

Tottenham:

There are a host of talented players in the Spurs side, but if one has to be picked, it is Kane. His sharpness, liveliness, strength and finishing finesse needs no introduction. Should the Harry Kane-hurricane strike Vicarage Road, it will undoubtedly be game over for Gracia's men.

Watford v Tottenham: Prediction

Both sides are playing some delightful football and the game is expected to be full of intensity, crosses and counter-attacks. The Yellow Army, who have the home advantage will certainly not allow a plain sail for Spurs. However, the reliable duo of Vertonghen and Alderweireld will prove to be too solid for Watford's liking. On the other side of the pitch, Kane and co. will claim a narrow victory by netting a couple of goals.

Predicted score: Watford 1-2 Tottenham Hotspur
