Bristol City will look to build on their midweek FA Cup victory over Premier League side West Ham when they host Watford in the Championship on Saturday.
The Robins edged past the Hammers 1-0 after Tommy Conway netted the sole goal and their eyes are now back on the league as Liam Manning’s side try and launch a fight for the play-off positions.
Manning’s side dismantled the Hornets in the first league match at Vicarage Road in December when they ran out 4-1 winners and will be confident that they can carve out a positive result.
However, it will be no easy task. Despite the result last time out, Watford have since gone unbeaten in the four games after, including back-to-back wins against QPR and Chesterfield.
Hornets boss Valerien Ismael has got his side in good nick going forward, with the Hornets averaging two goals per game in their last four matches.
City have been boosted by the arrival of Scott Twine on loan from Burnley this week, who is set to play a role, as well as the return of long-term absentee Ross McCrorie who played 60 minutes against David Moyes’ side in midweek.
Conway has been firmly among the goals of late and will provide the threat up top, the Scot is City's top scorer with eight goals so far this season.
Meanwhile, Zak Vyner and Rob Dickie will be trying to stop the potent Hornets attack from striking. Mileta Rajovis is Watford's leading scorer this campaign with nine goals in all competitions.
Both sides will be without several key players for the match, here is the latest injury and team news ahead of the match.
