Watford make six changes to the team that lost 5-1 to Brendan Rodgers’ side last weekend.
Goalkeeper Daniel Bachmann makes his first league start since January, while Samir, Kiko Femenia, Hassane Kamara, Tom Cleverley and Joshua King all return.

After more than 20 years, legendary BBC football pundit Mark Lawrenson is making his final set of Premier League predictions this weekend.
Lawro's prediction: 2-0
For different reasons both of these clubs will be glad to see the back of the 2021-22 season.
A return to the Championship awaits Watford, while Chelsea have already secured a top-four finish but will end a turbulent campaign without a trophy.
Neither club really knows what the future holds, either. The Hornets could see a lot of ins and outs over the summer, and the same goes for the Blues squad too.
Hodgson expects 'emotional' farewell at Watfordpublished at 15:46 20 May 2022

Roy Hodgson is expecting his last game as Watford boss on Sunday to be "emotional" and admits he will miss it.
Hodgson, who announced he was planning to retire earlier this month, will lead Watford for the final time against Chelsea.
“Every time you leave a job there’s a wave of emotion because you get sort of attached to the people you’re working with," he said.
“The players, I must say, they’ve not let me down at all in the training sessions and what they’ve tried to do in the games, so I’ve still got a lot of respect for them. In that respect it will be emotional (saying goodbye).
“It’s tough, you’re going to miss it and there are going to be days when you get up and think ‘I wish I was back on the training ground’, especially when the sun is shining and it’s nice and warm.
"It’s a bit easier on the days you wake up and it’s pouring with rain and freezing cold."
Hodgson on 'emotion' of leaving, conceding goals and ending on a highpublished at 14:11 20 May 2022

Roy Hodgson has been speaking to the media before Watford's final Premier League game of the season against Chelsea.
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
Sunday will be Hodgson's last game in charge at Watford and he said there is an "element of emotion" when you leave a job. He added that the players have not "let me down" in training sessions or what they have "tried to do in the games".
Hodgson added that he is "disappointed" things didn't work out at Watford but knew that at the end of the season he would "free myself from the burdens and responsibilities of being a Premier League manager".
He said it's important his side put in a good performance against Chelsea, even more so after the "real disappointment or debacle" of conceding five goals to Leicester.
He said the way his side conceded in that game was in a manner "that gives all managers and coaches a nightmare".
Chelsea v Watford: Head-to-head recordpublished at 10:58 20 May 2022
10:58 20 May 2022
Chelsea have never lost in seven Premier League home games against Watford (W6 D1), scoring at least twice in all seven meetings.
The Hornets have lost eight of their past nine Premier League games against Chelsea, including each of the last five in a row since a 4-1 home win in February 2018.
The Blues hold the record for the biggest victory on the final day in Premier League history, beating Wigan Athletic 8-0 to seal the title in 2009-10.
Watford’s only victory on the final day of a Premier League season came in their first campaign in the competition in 1999-00 (D2 L4). Of all current Premier League sides, none have a lower win rate on the final day than the Hornets (14%).

Watford 1-5 Leicester: Pick of the statspublished at 08:37 16 May 2022
08:37 16 May 2022
Watford suffered their 15th home league defeat of the season, the joint-most by any side in a single English top-flight campaign, level with Blackpool in 1966-67 and Stoke City in 1984-85.
Leicester have won back-to-back Premier League games for only a third time this season, also doing so in October and March.
The Hornets have conceded 46 Premier League goals at Vicarage Road this season, the most at home by any side in a single campaign in the competition, and most by any top-flight side overall since 1960-61 (Newcastle 49, Chelsea 48).
James Maddison has scored 16 goals in all competitions this season for the Foxes, his best tally in a single campaign in his career. He also has 17 Premier League goal involvements this term (10 goals, seven assists), also his most in a season in the competition.
Watford's woes continue against reinvigorated Leicesterpublished at 07:14 16 May 2022
And they could have few complaints by margin of their defeat, with their shambolic defending coming to the fore again and contributing to the Hornets becoming the first club to lose 15 home games in a Premier League season.
With incoming boss Rob Edwards watching from the stands, there were few positives that he or any of the Watford fans could take as they head closer to a summer break and next term in the Championship.
Meanwhile, Leicester and Jamie Vardy appear reinvigorated as the season draws to its end.
Vardy scored twice for the second consecutive match, while the Foxes’ other goalscorers, Harvey Barnes and James Maddison, were equally as impressive.
While Brendan Rodgers’ side have not hit the heights of last season they go into their final two fixtures well placed to finish inside the top 10.
Watford 1-5 Leicester City: Hodgson reactionpublished at 16:52 15 May 2022
16:52 15 May 2022
Watford boss Roy Hodgson to BBC Sport: "I didn’t see it coming at half-time. We were disappointed with the two goals we conceded in the first half. They were individual errors. I thought we’d done enough in the first half and showed enough threat.
"That goal within seconds of the restart put Leicester in a really good position. Bad mistakes led to the goals. When you analyse the goals we conceded, there isn’t a lot good you could say. Crass individual errors and we find ourselves on the end of a very bad defeat.
"It’s disappointing considering how the same team performed against Everton. It was tough for everyone, not least our fans. We gave them a shred of hope we could build on that and give them something more to cheer.
"The mistakes today were particularly bad. I know our players are gutted about those mistakes."

Mark Lawrenson takes on mixed martial arts legend Paul 'Semtex' Daley in the latest round of Premier League predictions.
Lawro's prediction: 0-2
Leicester look a totally different team now Jamie Vardy is fully fit and finding some form.
He makes the pitch bigger for the Foxes' creative players too, because opposing centre-backs take a couple of steps backwards because of his pace, which opens things up more for the likes of James Maddison to get on the ball.
After 11 successive defeats at Vicarage Road, Watford got a point against Everton last time out at home, but they offered very little going forward. I can't see them holding out this time.
The Hornets already know they are going down and have appointed Forest Green boss Rob Edwards as the man to try to take them back up to the Premier League next season. It is going to be a busy summer for him, because I think quite a few players will be looking to move on.
Paul's prediction: Ooh, I know the Forest fans are not going to like this but I have to go with Leicester here. A former coach of mine, Dave, is a season-ticket holder with the Foxes and if I don't say they will win I will probably get a phone call. 0-2
