Premier League 2021-22 Chelsea vs Watford: Team News, Injury Update
According to the most recent rumours, Cesar Azpilicueta, Antonio Rudiger, and Alonso might all depart Chelsea during the summer transfer window, and all three are likely to start here. However, it is yet to be confirmed whether Andreas Christensen will get the same level of send-off or not. Another player who might depart from Stamford Bridge this summer is goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, who is expected to start here as well. Malang Sarr and Saul Niguez are also expected to get some playing time against Watford. Timo Werner is scheduled to miss this game due to a hamstring injury, and youngster Harvey Vale could be called up as a substitute.
Despite Watford’s embarrassing loss to Leicester, Roy Hodgson does not have the luxury to make many changes to his starting XI due to several injury absentees in his squad. However, the good news is that Hassane Kamara and William Troost-Ekong could return to form the last line of defence while goalkeeper Ben Foster will play his final match for the club this weekend. Kwadwo Baah, the much-talked-about Watford prodigy, might make his debut as a substitute in this game.
