Watford currently sit 19th in the Premier League and desperately need to pick up points in their battle for survival. They travel to Old Trafford in Gameweek 27 to face a Man Utd side who have not won in their last two home matches. This provides Watford with hope going into this fixture and they will be relying on forward's Gerard Deulofeu (£6.1m) and Troy Deeney (£6.3m) to provide them with the attacking returns needed to get something from the match.
Deulofeu has registered two assists in his last three league matches, whilst Deeney has one goal and one assist in the same period. Deeney has accumulated four more FPL points than Deulofeu over the three gameweeks and considering Deeney also takes penalties for Watford, he just edges this head-to-head despite his slightly higher price.
Verdict: Troy Deeney
