Thomas Bramall has been named referee as Watford return to Vicarage Road in the Championship.
The Hornets play Burnley on Friday night in a 8pm kick-off and the Sheffield-based official will be the man in the middle.
He was added to the select group two refereeing list at the start of last season.
Before that he was an EFL linesman between 2014 and 2016 before he switched from flag to whistle.
He joined the refereeing pathway and was promoted to the national group list of referees in 2018 and has been refereeing in the EFL since.
This is his first game featuring Rob Edwards' men and he has so far dished out six yellow cards in two matches, Blackburn Rovers' 1-0 win over QPR on day one of the season and Oxford United's 5-3 Carabao Cup penalty shoot-out win over Swansea City on Tuesday.
Watford go into the game with four points from two matches and in sixth place.
Burnley are on the same number of points but two places further up the table.
