[img]http://metrouk2.files./2016/09/ac_watfordvsmanu_comp.jpg?w=480&h=274&crop=1[/img] MATCH PREVIEW Manchester United will be looking to get back to winning ways this weekend with a trip to Watford for Sunday’s early Premier League kick-off. After a perfect start under Jose Mourinho, cracks are starting to appear in this Red Devils side as they suffer back-to-back defeats for the first time since March. Last week, United were beaten at home by neighbours Manchester City in an early blow against one of their biggest title rivals, and the misery continued for them with a 1-0 defeat at Feyenoord in the Europa League on Thursday. Here’s a look at what lies ahead for United as they travel to Vicarage Road… United’s £89million summer signing, the Frenchman is yet to do anything of note in a red shirt, and with that kind of money spent on him, fans may start to lose patience quickly. We all know the 23-year-old has world class quality, as he’s shown in his career so far with Juventus and France, but he has a point to prove in the Premier League and will be fully expected to dominate a game like this. Mostly used in a deeper role by Mourinho so far, Pogba moved forward into Wayne Rooney’s number ten position against Feyenoord. It remains to be seen how he’ll be used for this game, and that could be vital in terms of helping him show his true potential Watford don’t have too many injuries to worry about aside from Stefano Okaka, so can field a strong line up for this big game. As ever, the useful strike partnership of Troy Deeney and Odion Ighalo will be key for the home side, while Etienne Capoue is one to watch in midfield. Mourinho has suggested he’ll revert to his usual starting XI after making some changes in the Europa League, and this surely means a controversial return for the under- performing Wayne Rooney. Marcus Rashford has surely earned a start over Anthony Martial, though, so could take a place on the left, while Juan Mata should continue on the right with no competition from the injured Henrikh Mkhitaryan. If you memorise one stat, make it this… Manchester United haven’t lost a league game to Watford since all the way back in 1986, before Sir Alex Ferguson even took charge of the club. Match stats Watford have lost each of their last nine league meet with United, including the previous six in the Premier League. United's last league defeat against Watford came in September 1986, two months before Sir Alex Fergus was appointed manager of the club. Ibrahimovic has scored four goals in his first four Premier League games for Manchester United. The Red Devils haven't won three consecutive Premier League away games since a run of four ended in April 2014, under David Moyes' management. Watford have never lost three consecutive home Premier League games before. |

Man Utd record vs Watford in the PL era Oct ’99 4-1 WIN Apr ’00 3-2 WIN Oct ’00 3-0 WIN Aug ’06 2-1 WIN Jan ’07 4-0 WIN Apr ’08 4-1 WIN Nov ’15 2-1 WIN Mar ’16 1-0 WIN Last time they met… United ran out 1-0 winners. Juan Mata’s free-kick seven minutes from time gave the Red Devils a narrow victory over Watford at Old Trafford back in March. A fairly typical game under the management of Louis van Gaal, this was far from a comfortable win or exciting performance, but it was enough to maintain the team’s strong record against the Hornets. From the archives… A classic FA Cup semi-final, Watford gave a good go of it here but ultimately lost 4-1 to a United team in superb form. Wayne Rooney scored twice for Alex Ferguson’s men as they hit top form to win the title and reach the FA Cup final in the 2006/07 season, while Cristiano Ronaldo and Kieran Richardson also chipped in with a strike each. Watford also equalised through a delightful goal from Hameur Bouazza, who gave Edwin van der Sar no chance with an acrobatic overhead kick in the 26th minute. How United fans would love to see Rooney playing like this again! |
