90+1
GREAT CLEARANCE! Danny Welbeck skips past Christensen on the byline. He rolls it into the six-yard box for what looks like a tap-in for Hughes, but Loftus-Cheek gets a foot in to clear it.
90'
Azpilicueta nicks the ball in midfield and races forwards. He slides it to Pulisic on the left of the area, who sees his shot blocked.
88'
CHANCE! James whips in a perfect cross to the back post. Loftus-Cheek only seems to have to walk into the header to score but somehow puts it wide.
85'
Pulisic really does have an excellent change of direction. He squirms through three challenges an goes over in a sandwich between the last two. Kevin Friend says no penalty, a decision upheld after a review.
83'
Another change for Watford, as Pereyra replaces Sarr.

Kante is down for Chelsea, and looks like he may have tweaked a hamstring.
76'
Loftus-Cheek, Abraham and Hudson-Odoi replace Willian, Giroud and Mount for Chelsea.
75'
Free kick for Watford. Hughes fires it in and Dawson gets there first, but his header from ten yards out flies well over the bar.
74'
Watford test Kepa at last. Masina has a pop from thirty yards out, but it bounces once before being safely gathered by Kepa.
72'
Sarr gets away down the right and fires a dangerous ball into the front post, which Christensen does well to clear.
69'
Drinks break.
68'
GOOD SAVE! A slick break upfield from Chelsea finds Willian in space on the left. He cuts infield and shoots low from 20 yards out, which Foster parries behind for a corner. From that, Zouma climbs highest and plants his header straight at Foster from 12 yards out.
65'
Barkley whips a dangerous ball around the back of the Watford defence, which skids through the penalty area and away.
64'
Two changes for Watford - Masina and Cleverley replace Femenia and Deeney.
