Xisco Munoz is preparing himself for what looks to be his biggest test so far as a Premier League head coach this afternoon, as Watford face Tottenham away.

Tuesday evening's Carabao Cup win over Crystal Palace will have given him something to think about with a few players impressing in their first starts of the season.

Here's how I think they could line up today.

Formation: 4-3-3

GK: Daniel Bachmann

Ben Foster is out injured and Bachmann has hardly been at fault for any of the goals conceded so far this season.

RB: Kiko Femenia

After making a return on Tuesday he could be in line to start this afternoon. Might not last the full 90 minutes.

CB: Christian Kabasele

The Belgian has had a steady enough start to the season and should keep his place.

CB: William Troost-Ekong

Made a big error against Brighton last week, but I'd expect him to be given another chance.

LB: Danny Rose

Did enough on Tuesday to at least be in contention this afternoon, especially after Adam Masina's uninspiring start.

CM: Peter Etebo

Will need to put in a much better performance than last weekend, but midfield numbers are thin on the ground so Munoz has little choice in the matter. He also looked much better on Tuesday evening.

CM: Imran Louza

Another who needs to improve, but showed glimpses of doing that against Crystal Palace.

CM: Tom Cleverley

Will need to be at his best today and has to find Sarr as much as he can.

RW: Ismaila Sarr

The best player in the squad, has to start.

LW: Cucho Hernandez

Over the last three games, I think he's done enough from the bench to show that he's a more dangerous option than Ken Sema.

ST: Emmanuel Dennis

If he can link up with Sarr again, Tottenham might be in for a much more difficult afternoon than they're expecting.
