Watford vs Tottenham Hotspur preview
Manager Harry Redknapp, distracted by his ongoing court case, may choose to rest a number of his top stars in the quest for a top four spot in the league. Somewhat surprisingly, Spurs are the best placed team outside of Manchester and have received gushing praise over their attractive style, but a run in the FA Cup would also be welcome as it is a tournament they have not won since 1991.Spurs' first task is to overcome the pain of last week's defeat as Mario Balotelli's late penalty denied them a deserved draw at Etihad stadium. If they can focus on the second-half performance, rather than the first, then they will be heavy favourites as they have lost just one game in ten. In contrast, Watford are on a run that has seen them win only two in eight games and they have lost three of the last four - conceding nine goals in the process.
Worryingly for the Hornets, Tottenham have only lost one of the last 27 FA Cup ties where they have been drawn against lower league opponents (Leicester City in 2006). Six of those ties have been won after a replay and Jermain Defoe, who is likely to be afforded a rare start, has bagged eight goals in ten games in the competition in the last three seasons.
Spurs' attacking ambitions are well known and Watford boss Sean Dyche will have his hands full trying to quell their forays. The club will be without Martin Taylor and Stephen McGinn but Jonathan Hogg is set to be fit. Dyche may well use the 4-1-4-1 used at Birmingham to get Hogg, John Eustace and Prince Buaben into the side while also flooding the midfield to deny the Premier League side any space.
Last time the two clubs met was in the Carling Cup in December 2008, Watford took the lead only to lose 2-1 at Vicarage Road. In a bad week for their opponents, revenge could be a dish best served cold.
