Fleck gets the game underway for Sheffield United!
Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Premier League meeting between Watford and Sheffield United at Vicarage Road!
Watford are still looking for their first win in the league after a poor start to this season. They've earned just two points and come into this game following back-to-back defeats. They did win their last game at home, beating Swansea City 2-1 in the EFL Cup. United made a bright start following their promotion, but have won just one of their last five matches in all competitions (D1 L3), although they were unlucky not to get something against Liverpool last weekend.
WATFORD STARTING XI (3-4-1-2): Ben Foster; Christian Kabasele, Sebastian Prodl, Craig Cathcart; Daryl Janmaat, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Tom Cleverley, Jose Holebas; Roberto Pereyra; Danny Welbeck, Andre Gray.
SHEFFIELD UNITED STARTING XI (3-5-2): Dean Henderson; Chris Basham, John Egan, Jack O'Connell; George Baldock, John Lundstram, Oliver Norwood, John Fleck, Enda Stevens; Oliver McBurnie, Callum Robinson.
SHEFFIELD UNITED SUBS: Billy Sharp, Phil Jagielka, Luke Freeman, Muhamed Besic, Lys Mousset, Simon Moore, Ben Osborn.
The teams are out on the field now, with kick-off just moments away.
Wilder's side had a lot of the ball in the first half and got into some good positions in the final third but didn't create any clear-cut chances. If his side continue to play the same way and put Watford under more pressure, they look the most likely to open the scoring. Watford came closest to breaking the deadlock, but they haven't actually had a shot on target. Pereyra has been their most dangerous player though and if they get him involved more, they'll get more opportunities on goal.
That's all for today, goodbye!
Watford remain bottom of the Premier League with that draw and travel to under-fire Tottenham after the international break. The Blades extend their unbeaten run away from home to four games and are back at Bramall Lane in two weeks time when they host Arsenal in the league.
