Watford vs Arsenal: Key Battles

The Premier League returns after the first international break and Arsenal make the short trip to Vicarage Road to face bottom of the table Watford.

This is a vital game for the Hornets, as the ousting of manager Javi Gracia sees the return of Quique Sanchez Flores, having managed Espanyol in Spain and Shanghai Shenhua in China since leaving Watford in 2016.

Arsenal have made a steady start to the season, having picked up wins against Burnley and Newcastle United, while also earning a point against fierce rivals Tottenham.

The Gunners will be hoping for another three points, but will be wary of a rejuvenated Watford under a ‘new’ manager.

Watford are currently languishing at the bottom of the table, having lost three games and getting their only point in a draw against Newcastle.

However, a break could not have come at a better time for Watford. They will now be looking for a strong performance against Arsenal to try to build some momentum for their campaign this season.

We take a look at five key battles ahead of the meeting.
