Watford v Manchester United live stream, Saturday 20 November, 3pm GMT
Manchester United will be looking to bounce back from defeat in the Manchester derby when they face Watford on Saturday afternoon.
After a brief uptick which brought positive results against Tottenham and Atalanta, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer finds himself under massive pressure once more. The Norwegian survived last month’s seismic 5-0 demolition by Liverpool and was also able to ride out the 2-0 defeat by Manchester City before the international break, a loss which was much more comprehensive than the scoreline suggests.
Yet for all that Solskjaer remains a United legend, he will surely not be able to survive too many more bad results. The absence of a clear chain of command in the United hierarchy has worked in his favour up to now, but Solskjaer’s position may soon become untenable.
After all, the Red Devils are almost certainly out of the Premier League title race already, and defeat at Vicarage Road could see them sink into mid-table if other results go against them this weekend.
Watford’s sensational 5-2 win at Everton may feature most prominently in the memory, but the Hornets have lost four of their last five matches. Three of those defeats came under Claudio Ranieri, on whom the jury is still out despite that memorable comeback victory at Goodison Park.
Paul Pogba could be out until the new year after picking up a thigh injury on international duty with France. Edinson Cavani will need to be assessed but Raphael Varane is definitely out. Luke Shaw and Scott McTominay are expected to be available for the visitors to Vicarage Road.
Watford will have to make do without the suspended Juraj Kucka after the midfielder was sent off in the 1-0 loss to Arsenal last time out. Peter Etebo, Christian Kabasele, Ken Sema and Kwadwo Baah are all out injured, and Ozan Tufan will undergo a fitness test.
Kick-off is at 3pm GMT on Saturday 20 November. See below for international broadcast options.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier league football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
