Watford 'not sure' on knee injury to Roberto Pereyra

Watford coach Walter Mazzarri has doubts over Roberto Pereyra's fitness after the midfielder suffered an injury in Wednesday's defeat to Manchester City.

Pereyra appeared to suffer a knee injury early in the game but tried to play on before eventually leaving the pitch in the 30th minute.

Mazzarri suggested it could be the latest in a series of serious injuries for the Hornets.

"I asked him if he felt a twist in the knee, they [medical staff] told me it was a knock and that's the reason he went back on the pitch. Now, I'm not sure," Mazzarri said.
