Walter Mazzarri set to shuffle Watford pack for FA Cup clash with Millwall

Watford manager Walter Mazzarri will not be afraid to ring the changes ahead of his side's potential banana skin of an FA Cup tie at Millwall on Sunday.

The Hornets head to the Den to take on the Lions, 10th in League One, as they embark on a run of three pivotal matches inside six days with a trip to Arsenal on Tuesday before West Brom travel to Vicarage Road on Saturday.

Watford will face a Millwall side which stunned Bournemouth in the previous round with a deserved 3-0 victory against the Premier League club.

Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe elected to make 11 changes to his side, but Mazzarri, whose Watford team have slumped to 14th in the table following a winless streak which now stands at seven matches, suggested that the magic of FA Cup may have to take a back seat.
