West Ham United Vs Watford match preview

ENGLISH LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP: 12BET West Ham United Vs Watford 3/8 3:45AM GMT+8

Matt Taylor returns to the West Ham squad for the visit of Watford. The midfielder has missed the last three matches through suspension after he was sent off in the 1-1 draw with Southampton last month. Defender Winston Reid could miss out again after he was knocked unconscious playing for New Zealand last week and winger Julien Faubert will be checked over having sat out Sunday's win at Cardiff with a virus.

Watford will continue to be without long-term injury victims Martin Taylor and Stephen McGinn for their Championship clash with West Ham. Defender Taylor has a shoulder problem which is preventing him from being a part of manager Sean Dyche's matchday squad, while midfielder McGinn is still not ready for a first-team return from a knee problem despite playing 45 minutes of a reserve team match last week - his first outing for a year. Dyche hopes both players will feature for the second string next week as they step up their recoveries.
