Watford vs Rotherham preview - Murray only absentee for Hornets

Posted Monday, February 23, 2015 by PA

Sean Murray is Watford's only injury absentee for the visit of Rotherham.

Murray has been out since the beginning of January and remains on the sidelines as he continues to recover from a knee operation.

Fellow midfielder Gianni Munari returned from a foot injury against Norwich on Saturday so Slavisa Jokanovic has an otherwise full-strength squad.

Jokanovic could make changes to his starting line-up after his side slipped to a 3-0 defeat against their promotion rivals with the likes of Munari, Matej Vydra and Daniel Tozser pushing for recalls.

Rotherham boss Steve Evans is likely to make changes following Saturday's 5-0 humiliation at Wolves.

Skipper Craig Morgan is likely to come back into defence after Evans named him as a sub at Molineux following illness, with Kirk Broadfoot the man set to make way.

Jack Hunt is also set to come in at right-back ahead of Frazer Richardson while Rob Milsom is also likely to drop out of the side, with a number of players vying for a start in his place.

The Millers' build-up to the game has been overshadowed by reports linking Evans to the vacant managerial position at Peterborough.
