A tribute to our fallen heroes from Arsenal ahead of the match today. The teams will observe a minute silence prior to kick-off on the final weekend of Premier League matches ahead of Remembrance Day.

These two sides last met at the Emirates on the final day of the 2019/20 Premier League season with Arsenal running out 3-2 winners, a result which relegated Watford to the Championship. The Gunners took a 3-0 lead thanks to a brace from Aubameyang and one from Tierney. Troy Deeney pulled a goal back for Watford from the spot, ex-Arsenal man Danny Welbeck netted a second to setup a nervous finish, but the Gunners held out for the three points which saw them finish the campaign in eighth place.

As for Watford, they are looking to establish themselves under new manager, Ranieri. They reside in 16th position with 10 points from 30 available. They are two points off the relegation zone at the start of the day. However, their last two league victories have come away from home at the expense of Norwich and Everton.

Arsenal have enjoyed a real upturn in form of late and will be looking to extend their unbeaten run in the Premier League to eight matches today. They sit seventh in the table with 17 points from 30 available, just three points shy of the top four. Since their 5-0 defeat at Manchester City in August, they have conceded just four league goals.

Ranieri has shaken the Hornets nest making five changes to the team which began the 1-0 defeat against Southampton at Vicarage Road last weekend. Rose, Nkoulou, Tufan, Femenia and Dennis come into the starting line-up. Ngakia, Troost-Ekong, Mesina, Hernandez and Pedro drop out.

Arteta has made just one change to the Arsenal side who began the 2-0 victory at Leicester City last time out. Thomas Partey misses out with a tight groin meaning Ainsley Maitland-Niles starts for the Gunners.
