Bournemouth now playing it around their own half before Watford break.

Will Hughes lays it off to Troy Deeney but his shot from the edge of the box is blocked by Nathan Ake

Bournemouth now enjoying some possession in the Watford half.

Eventually results in Junior Stanislas unleashing a shot from the edge of the box, which is parried to safety by Orestis Kanezis.

Watford have most of the ball until they give away a free-kick 30 yards out.

Charlie Daniels rolls it to Ryan Fraser, who crosses into the box and Nathan Ake's header clips the top of the crossbar.

The game's under way at Vicarage Road...

• Watford are unbeaten in four matches at Vicarage Road, winning each of their last three.
• They have not won four top-flight home games in a row since December 1986, under Graham Taylor.
• Troy Deeney has scored four goals in three league appearances against Bournemouth at Vicarage Road.
• Deeney could become the first player to score in four consecutive Watford Premier League home matches.

• Watford are unbeaten in five Premier League matches against Bournemouth, although four of those fixtures ended in draws.
• Bournemouth's only victory in 13 meetings in all competitions was by a 2-0 scoreline at home in the Championship in January 2015 (D6, L6).
• The Cherries' only win away to Watford in the last 16 attempts came in the third tier in March 1997.

There was positive news for Bournemouth during the international break as Lewis Cook became the first man to play for England while with the Cherries. The midfielder came on for the last 20 minutes of Tuesday night's 1-1 draw with Italy.

It also saw his grandfather win a bet worth £17,000. Trevor Burlingham put £500 on Cook playing for England after he had broken into the Leeds first team in 2014.

I would love to know how Troy Deeney is getting to Cardiff. The Joshua-Parker fight is schedule to start at around 22:30 BST and, by the looks of this, travelling by car or train may be tricky. Here's an update by BBC News.

Maybe Deeney is borrowing Elton John's private helicopter? If he has one, of course.

Watford manager Javier Gracia makes only two changes after the Hornets lost 5-0 at Liverpool two weeks ago, with Daryl Janmaat and Will Hughes coming in for Miguel Britos and Richarlison.

Defender Craig Cathcart remains on the bench after making his first appearance for seven months for Northern Ireland last Saturday.

Watford XI: Karnezis, Janmaat, Prodl, Mariappa, Holebas, Doucoure, Capoue, Kiko, Hughes, Pereyra, Deeney.

Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe also makes two changes to the side which came from behind to win 2-1 at home to West Brom last time out.

Charlie Daniels and Ryan Fraser come in for injured defenders Adam Smith and Simon Francis.

Bournemouth XI: Begovic, Fraser, S. Cook, Ake, Daniels, Ibe, Gosling, L. Cook, Stanislas, King, Wilson.

In the scramble for Premier League safety, Watford and Bournemouth are leading the way as they're joint-10th in the table on 36 points, with the Cherries ahead on goal difference.

Reaching 40 points is no guarantee of a place in the top flight for next season, but with so many teams battling it out to stay in the Premier League, a win today could be enough for the Hornets or the Cherries to start looking forward to their summer holidays.

Watford were well beaten in their last two games before the international break, losing 3-0 at Arsenal and then 5-0 at Liverpool, so must be wary of being dragged back towards the relegation mire.

The Cherries, meanwhile, will be keen to build on their 2-1 home win against rock-bottom West Brom, who are surely the first side destined for the drop.

But first, here's the team news...
