Match preview

Harry Kane scored twice in the opening 34 minutes of Tottenham's 3-0 success at home to Pacos Ferreira on Thursday and his sudden return to prominence is a blow for Watford, who could be swept aside in north London.

Spurs fans have warmly welcomed Kane back into the fold and have plenty to look forward to as the Lilywhites look to build on their 100 per cent start to the season.

The resumption of Kane's partnership with Heung-Min Son, who was a substitute on Thursday, is sure to cause problems for a Watford side who have shipped two goals in each of their Premier League games.

The Hornets struggled to compete in last Sunday's 2-0 loss at Brighton and their survival quest could be heavily reliant on winning games at Vicarage Road.

They haven't won a league match at Tottenham since 1985 and could struggle once again with Spurs likely to be in the ascendancy by half-time.

Key stat

Watford have trailed at half-time and full-time in each of their last four Premier League away games.
