Watford vs Bournemouth - Deulofeu poised to make belated first appearance
Posted Friday, October 05, 2018 by PA
Watford winger Gerard Deulofeu is in contention for a first appearance of the season when the Hornets host Bournemouth.
The former Barcelona player’s recovery from a foot injury has been hampered by a hip and abdominal problem, but he should be available along with Stefano Okaka, Miguel Britos and Sebastian Prodl, who have all resumed training.
Defender Marc Navarro has picked up a minor fitness issue so will not feature against the Cherries, while Daryl Janmaat (knee) and midfielder Tom Cleverley (Achilles) both continue their own rehabilitation.
Bournemouth have no fresh injury concerns.
Winger Junior Stanislas, fit again after knee surgery, came off the bench to score a late penalty in the 2-1 win over Crystal Palace on Monday night so should feature again.
Left-back Charlie Daniels is closing in on a return from his knee problem, while midfielder Kyle Taylor (calf) also continues his rehabilitation.
