Five missing for Hornets
Watford are already without five players and have a doubt over Fernando Forestieri ahead of the visit of Brighton.
Forestieri missed Tuesday night's 2-1 win over Brentford with an eye injury and will be assessed ahead of kick-off.
Fellow striker Troy Deeney is still out with a hamstring injury and is joined on the sidelines by Gabriel Tamas (cruciate), Keith Andrews (calf) and Gabriele Angella (ankle).
To add to new boss Billy McKinlay's problems, defender Daniel Pudil is suspended after his late red card against the Bees.
Brighton also have suspension problems with Inigo Calderon and Jake Forster-Caskey forced to miss out.
Full-back Calderon completes a three-match ban and midfielder Forster-Caskey sits out on Saturday after racing to five bookings this season.
Sam Baldock is a doubt after missing the midweek draw against Cardiff with a calf problem while Dale Stephens (ankle) and Solly March (back) are still missing.
Boss Sami Hyypia is set to rotate his squad again with Andrew Crofts and Adrian Colunga pushing for recalls after dropping to the bench against the Bluebirds.
