Watford are confident Tuesday's game against West Ham will go ahead despite further Covid issues.

Claudio Ranieri's side have not played since December 10 and have seen their last three Premier League games against Burnley, Crystal Palace and Wolves postponed after an outbreak prevented them having enough players to field a team.

While the club's issues have eased slightly ahead of West Ham's visit, a number of players will be isolating and will miss the game after further positive tests.
