It could so easily have been 2-0.

Callum Wilson meets David Brooks' wicked cross, but cannot direct his header goalward.

It's just quite not working for Watford at the moment. There's been plenty of nice build-up, but nothing to show for it so far.

David Brooks is again on the attack for the Cherries, he breaks away down the right, but sees his cross blocked.

Craig Cathcart goes close to an equaliser as he heads wide from Jose Holebas' corner. He really should be burying that.

It's a brilliant break by Bournemouth. It is almost typical of Watford's season because they start matches so aggressively, but they can leave the door open at the other end.

That goal has knocked the stuffing out of Watford a bit, who were playing well, Bournemouth are looking more and more confident in possession

Asmir Begovic eventually makes a fine save to deny Will Hughes after a bit of pinball in the Bournemouth box.

Good chance for Watford.

Christian Kabasele is the first player to be booked, after a overly strong challenge on Asmir Begovic, following Jose Holesbas' free-kick.

Joshua King is caught offside after a neat link-up with David Brooks. Most of the Cherries play has come down the right flank so far, have they identified Jose Holebas as Watford's weak link?

Ben Foster is again off his line quickly to claim Ryan Fraser's throughball for Joshua King. It's been a decent start from both sides here.

Adam Smith heads the first corner behind, and Asmir Begovic is able to claim the second easily. Jose Holebas will be disappointed with his delivery with those two set-pieces.

Roberto Pereyra tees up Troy Deeney, who has the first shot of the game, which is deflected wide for a corner.

Ben Foster is called into early action to clear a throughball meant for David Brooks. It really is coming down in Watford today.

We are under way in the 100th Premier League match at Vicarage Road!

Bournemouth were very good in the transfer market and the players they have brought in, they know they can sell on.

Maybe their away form is a little bit weak because they give the ball away too easily and there is a lot of space in midfield.

Callum Wilson has got to maintain what he is doing and I was surprised he wasn't in the England squad that was announced in the week.

The players are going through their final warm-ups on a slick Vicarage Road pitch. Kick-off is just moments away.

This is sixth versus seventh and, although Watford also began strongly last season, this has been by far Bournemouth's best start to a campaign since they were promoted to the Premier League in 2015.

Both teams play good attacking football and both of them have had blips - Bournemouth's came in their defeat by Burnley a couple of weeks ago, and Watford's when they lost to Arsenal last time out.

But what they also both had in common was they still created lots of chances in those games. Their attacking play is a real positive.

If I am being critical, Bournemouth probably give away too many chances too, and that is why I am going for a Hornets win here.

Lawro's prediction: 2-1
