The penultimate match of Gameweek 5 sees Watford take on Arsenal at Vicarage Road. Kick-off is at 16:30 BST.
This is returning head coach Quique Sanchez Flores’ first Watford match in charge since departing the Hornets at the end of the 2015/16 season.
Flores has made three changes to the starting XI that drew 1-1 at Newcastle a fortnight ago, with Jose Holebas (£4.8m), Gerard Deulofeu (£6.2m) and the fit-again Etienne Capoue (£4.9m) replacing Daryl Janmaat (£4.4m), the injured Craig Cathcart (£4.4m) and Roberto Pereyra (£5.8m).
The release of the teamsheet had the Hornets lining up in a 4-2-3-1, a formation Flores had favoured on and off during his managerial career.
Andre Gray (£5.9m) leads the line, with Ismaila Sarr (£6.4m) among the substitutes.
There is no place in the matchday squad for Danny Welbeck (£6.0m), however.
Unai Emery has made two changes to the side that rescued a point in the north London derby.
The injured Alexandre Lacazette (£9.4m) is replaced by Mesut Ozil (£7.3m), while Dani Ceballos (£5.7m) returns to the side in place of Lucas Torreira (£4.9m).
The Gunners may well be playing in a 4-4-2 diamond, given the number of central midfielders in the starting XI.
This corresponding fixture last season saw the Gunners keep their only clean sheet of 2018/19.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (£11.0m) scored the only goal of that match.
The Gabon international is the sixth most-popular captaincy choice of Gameweek 5.
Aubameyang starts up front with Nicolas Pepe (£9.4m) this afternoon.
Watford XI: Foster, Femenia, Dawson, Kabasele, Holebas, Doucoure, Capoue, Hughes, Cleverley, Deulofeu, Gray.
Arsenal XI: Leno, Maitland-Niles, Sokratis, Luiz, Kolasinac, Ceballos, Guendouzi, Xhaka, Ozil, Aubameyang, Pepe.
