Watford go into tonight's game against Stoke City looking to make it three wins in a row for the first time this season.
Head coach Xisco Munoz has said things have to change on the road and that he wants to see his side playing attacking football.
Here's how I think he will set his side up tonight.
Formation: 442
GK: Daniel Bachmann
With Foster still out injured and having picked up two clean sheets in his last two games, Bachmann will be between the sticks.
RB: Kiko Femenia
Munoz may choose to put Femenia on the left if he decides to rotate and give Masina a rest, but either way, I'd expect him to play.
CB: William Troost-Ekong
Another commanding performance against Barnsley sees him keep his place.
CB: Francisco Sierralta
The Troost-Ekong + Sierrlta pairing is proving difficult to break down. I think both will play this evening.
LB: Adam Masina
Said he was ready to play in the pre-match press conference and has looked good since returning.
CM: Will Hughes
Munoz may opt to rest the midfielder who only made his first start of the season on Tuesday, but it would be difficult to leave him out after the quality of performance he put in.
CM: Tom Cleverley
Worked well alongside Hughes and will likely start again this evening.
RW: Ismaila Sarr
Munoz is starting to really get a tune out of the winger - hopefully he can continue his improvement tonight.
LW: Philip Zinckernagel
The first change I think will come on the wing, with Zinckernagel impressing enough in his brief cameo on Tuesday to earn himself a place in the starting XI.
ST: Troy Deeney
The skipper was taken off early on Tuesday night with an eye on tonight's game. An improved performance means he is likely to keep his place.
ST: Joao Pedro
While Munoz has said he will stand by Andre Gray, I think Pedro will be restored to the first XI this evening.
