Watford vs Everton - Doucoure poised to make Hornets return

Abdoulaye Doucoure, who has missed the last four games due to a knee problem, could be ready for Watford when Everton visit Vicarage Road.

The midfielder returned to training this week, and Kiko Femenia (hamstring) could also make a return to action.

Roberto Pereyra (calf), Isaac Success (hamstring) and Sebastian Prodl (knee) remain sidelined.

Everton will assess defender Yerry Mina ahead of the trip to Hertfordshire.

The Colombian has sat out the last three games with a foot injury and boss Marco Silva – who will be making his first return to Vicarage Road since being sacked by Watford last season – said on Friday the defender’s involvement was still in doubt.

Leighton Baines (rib) and Phil Jagielka (knock) are definitely still unavailable.

The likes of Richarlison and Gylfi Sigurdsson may be restored to the starting XI after dropping out of it for Wednesday’s 2-0 loss to Manchester City.
