Team News: Joshua King returns to Bournemouth bench

Joshua King returns to the bench for Bournemouth as they stick with the same XI for the trip to Watford, while the Hornets make two changes from last time out.

Joshua King has returned from a hamstring injury to take his place on the substitutes' bench for Bournemouth's trip to take on Watford at Vicarage Road this afternoon.

The Norwegian forward only took part in light training this week after missing the win over Everton seven days ago due to a hamstring problem.

Adam Smith picked up a knock to the face last weekend but is fit enough to take his place in defence, although this match comes too soon for Marc Pugh who has also been nursing a hamstring injury of late.

Boss Eddie Howe has therefore opted to stick with the same XI from that 1-0 victory against the Toffees, with King's inclusion the only alteration to the squad.

Watford manager Walter Mazzarri has gone with two changes from the 2-0 reverse at the hands of Burnley last time out, meanwhile, as Camilo Zuniga and Younes Kaboul are drafted into the starting lineup.

Injured duo Miguel Britos and Craig Cathcart both drop out from that setback at Turf Moor, but Kaboul has given his manager a boost by reaching full fitness recently to return to the fold.

Four of the last six meetings between these two sides have ended all squad, while Bournemouth will this afternoon be searching for a first away win - and just a second goal - on their travels this term.

Watford: Gomes, Zuniga, Kaboul, Prodl, Holebas, Amrabat, Behrami, Capoue, Pereyra; Deeney, Ighalo
Subs: Pantilimon, Kabasele, Kenedy, Watson, Doucoure, Guedioura, Success

Bournemouth: Boruc, Smith, Francis, Cook, Daniels, Ibe, Surman, Arter, Wilshere, Stanislas, Wilson
Subs: Federici, Ake, B Smith, Gosling, Gradel, King, Afobe
