One of the most interesting ties of the weekend takes place today when City take on Watford. Though many people wouldn't have pegged this for a good match before the season started, Watford's good form under Quique Sanchez Flores has the Hornets turning heads and taking points. Odion Ighalo has been one of the league's top strikers and Troy Deeney does a good job leading the team. City will need a good performance to take all three points today.

No changes for City from the side that took on Leicester a few days ago. This is clearly the lineup Pellegrini wants to see work.
