Pulisic gets the nod over Hudson-Odoi as Emerson returns at left-back

The eighth and final match of a busy Saturday of Premier League football sees Watford take on Chelsea.

Kick-off at Vicarage Road is at 17:30 GMT.

Frank Lampard’s main selection dilemma has gone the way of Christian Pulisic (£7.2m), who has been given the nod to start on the left flank.

Callum Hudson-Odoi (£6.0m) is only among the substitutes.

Emerson Palmieri (£5.5m) has returned at left-back, meanwhile, with Marcos Alonso (£6.3m) dropping to the bench.

Frank Lampard’s side are otherwise unchanged from the team that beat Burnley last weekend.

Andre Gray (£5.7m) replaces the injured Tom Cleverley (£4.9m) in Quique Sanchez Flores’ only alteration from Gameweek 10.

Watford have only scored one goal in their last five Premier League games, although Lampard’s troops haven’t kept an away clean sheet in the top flight this season.

Chelsea have averaged four goals per game in their last four league fixtures on the road, however.

Tammy Abraham (£7.8m) and Mason Mount (£6.9m) haven’t blanked in any one of those four games.

Abraham was the second-most-bought Fantasy Premier League forward of Gameweek 11 and remains the most-owned asset in FPL overall.

Pulisic himself was bought by just under 135,000 Fantasy managers ahead of this game.

Watford XI: Foster, Kabasele, Dawson, Cathcart, Janmaat, Doucouré, Chalobah, Masina, Deulofeu, Gray, Pereyra.

Chelsea XI: Kepa, Azpilicueta, Tomori, Zouma, Emerson, Kovacic, Jorginho, Mount, Willian, Abraham, Pulisic.

    I guess this game confirms that Emerson is first choice ahead of Alonso since he's replaced him as soon as he was back even when Alonso has played well apart from giving away the pen to Utd in the cup.

    I'm happy for the strangest reason. Had two free transfers, played it safe and just swapped Ota for Mendy. I was always benching Montoya. If I had stuck, I wouldn't have got Montoya's points off the bench as Ota's cameo would have ruined that. That one transfer gave me a serious boost, even though the guy I brought in did nothing!
