Watford have given Odion Ighalo first crack at the Albion defence today – and brought back two other key men.

Ighalo, with 20 league goals this term, gets the nod over Matej Vydra to partner 20-goal Troy Deeney in attack.

Ickechi Anya is recalled to the starting XI and will operate as a left wing-back.

Matthew Connolly returns from injury as one of three at the back as Watford aim to extend their one-point lead at the top of the division.

The Hornets could clinch promotion later today if they have won here and other results are favourable.

Watford: Gomes; Angella, Cathcart, Connolly; Paredes, Abdi, Watson, Guedioura, Anya; Ighalo, Deeney. Subs: Bond, Motta, Hoban, Layun, Tozser, Forestieri, Vydra.
