Watford host Leicester City in the Premier League today, the first of four fixtures taking place.
The Premier League is finally back after the season ground to a halt due to the coronavirus pandemic and Leicester will be hoping to pick up where they left off.
The Foxes are third and closing in on a place in next year’s Champions League.
Today they will come up against former manager Nigel Pearson, who has made a big impact since he was appointed Watford manager in December. His side have won 5 and drawn 4 of his fifteen matches in charge, with Watford now sat outside of the relegation places.
However, they are level on points with 18th-place Bournemouth, meaning a win today against high-flying Leicester is a must. Here is everything you need to know.
