Manchester United’s recently appointed permanent manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjær, will need to reinvigorate and instill in them the confidence and flair they had in the early matches under the Norwegian. The Red Devils have lost their last two matches since their historical victory over PSG in the Champions League round of 16 match.

Javi Garcia and his men will be looking to go further up the table with a victory over the Red Devils. The Hornets though, have not enjoyed any success against the Big 6, with the side having secured victory just once against Tottenham Hotspur way back in September, going on to lose the other 8 matches.

The first meeting between the sides at the Vicarage Road saw Manchester United breaking the unbeaten run of the Hornets by defeating them 2-1 courtesy of first half goals from Romelu Lukaku and Chris Smalling.
