Watford v Chelsea team news: Willian out with calf injury as Pedro replaces Brazilian at Vicarage Road

Much has been said of the rivalry between managers Walter Mazzarri and Antonio Conte ahead of today's clash at Vicarage Road, but this won't interest the players.

The Hornets will have been satisfied with their opening 1-1 draw with Southampton, while the Blues began their campaign by beating West Ham United, courtesy of a late goal from Diego Costa.

Since this clash, Watford have completed the signings of Juventus midfielder Roberto Pereyra and Sunderland defender Younes Kaboul, and both will now be awaiting their debuts.
