Watford welcome Norwich City to Vicarage Road on Tuesday for the opening round of the Carabao Cup.
Both teams are coming off disappointing starts to their Championship campaigns - Watford lost 1-0 away at Charlton Athletic after conceding a stoppage-time goal, while Norwich were beaten 2-1 at home by Millwall, surrendering the winner late in the match. The recent head-to-head history is evenly split, though Norwich took both league matches last season with an aggregate 5-1 scoreline.

Watford team news
Watford have seen a busy summer of squad changes. Key defensive departures include Francisco Sierralta, Antonio Tikvić, and Ryan Porteous, although the Hornets have reinforced with the arrivals of Nathan Baxter, Marc Bola, Hector Kyprianou, and Remerio Moulton, plus several loanees.
New signings like Nestory Irankunda and Othmane Maamma add options out wide. In terms of current availability, Edo Kayembe is back in the squad, but Georgia international Giorgi Chakvetadze remains sidelined through injury, with a potential return hoped for in September.
Watford’s attack has struggled to click so far, scoring just once in their last five competitive fixtures, and the team will be looking for more creativity and finishing in this cup tie.
Norwich team news
Norwich City also changed over the summer and are adjusting under new manager Liam Manning. They suffered a last-minute defeat to Millwall in their league opener, with their only goal coming from Josh Sargent. The Canaries have now lost three of their last seven matches and will be looking to regroup quickly.
There are no widely reported fresh injury concerns in the first-team squad, and the likely starting XI will feature regulars such as Sargent and creative midfielder Gabriel Sara.
Norwich’s away form has been poor, with four defeats in their last seven competitive trips, typically scoring just once on their travels. However, recent history against Watford will give them hope for progression, having won all three of their previous encounters.
