Match Preview
Arsenal vs Watford: team news, match details, key stats & predicted lineup
Arsenal welcome Watford to the Emirates stadium and will be aiming to extend their unbeaten run to ten matches.

Arsenal will be looking to get a third straight Premier League win when they host Watford on Sunday afternoon.
After an impressive 2-0 win at Leicester last week, the Gunners stand a good chance of entering the top four just before the international break if they can beat the Hornets.
Arsenal are on an unbeaten run of nine matches across all competitions, the Gunners haven’t been on such a run since the 2019/20 season.
Watford are three points away from the relegation places after sacking head coach Xisco Munoz and appointed Claudio Ranieri who won the Premier League with Leicester City.
Team news
Granit Xhaka (long-term knee injury) is Arsenal’s only injury concern for Sunday. Kieran Tierney will be in contention for this game after returning to full training.
Tierney will be subjected to a late fitness test and will battle with Nuno Tavares for the left-back spot.
Predicted starting lineup
Ramsdale; Tomiyasu, White, Gabriel, Tavares; Saka, Partey, Lokonga, Smith Rowe; Aubameyang, Lacazette
Key stats
Watford have lost six of their seven away Premier League games against Arsenal, with the exception being a 2-1 victory in January 2017.
