As for the visitors, suffering a 2-1 defeat against Chelsea at Vicarage Road over the weekend, Watford are still the only Premier League outfit yet to record a win in any of their opening 11 matchups, their worst domestic start in the club s history. Despite turning to former boss Quique Sánchez Flores back in September, the 54-year-olds defensive tactics are already coming under increasing scrutiny. Suffering back-to-back defeats and crashing out of the EFL Cup at the hands of fellow strugglers Everton last week, the Hornets already find themselves sat two points adrift of Norwich at the foot of the table. A huge part of Watford s continued issues heading into November have come down to some glaring struggles in the final third. Scoring just a pair of goals in their last six Premier League matchups, Flores men have recorded just six strikes so far this season, the worst attacking record held by any side in England s top-flight.
