    Norwich City face make-or-break time in the Premier League on Tuesday night as they travel to Watford.

    Another loss for the Canaries will all-but consign them to relegation, as their nearest rival to catch would go 10 points ahead of them with only 12 more points to play for.

    It’s must-win, then, for Daniel Farke and his men—but Watford counterpart Nigel Pearson will have the exact same thought.

    Predicted line-ups

    Watford: Foster; Femenia, Kabasele, Cathcart, Masina; Capoue, Hughes; Sarr, Doucoure, Welbeck; Deeney.

    Norwich: Krul; Aarons, Klose, Godfrey, Lewis; Trybull, Tettey; Buendia, Cantwell; Idah, Pukki.

    What are the odds?

    Watford – 13/19

    Draw – 3/1

    Norwich – 19/4

    Prediction

    The pressure is on for both teams, who have looked increasingly leaky at the back in recent weeks.

    Without their home support, though, Watford could find it tough to find another gear – and Norwich might find themselves playing without pressure as it now looks almost certain they’ll go down.
