Watford vs Newcastle - Roberto Pereyra faces late test

Roberto Pereyra will face a late fitness test for Watford’s Premier League clash with Newcastle at Vicarage Road.

The 27-year-old is battling a groin strain, while Nathaniel Chalobah will miss out due to a knee injury.

Andre Carrillo has an adductor problem and will miss the game, with Stefano Okaka and Tom Cleverley missing the last two games of the season.

Newcastle will be without striker Islam Slimani after he admitted a Football Association charge of violent conduct.

The Algeria international, who joined the club on loan from Leicester in January, kicked out at West Brom defender Craig Dawson, but argued unsuccessfully for a reduction of the three-match ban it brought.

Manager Rafael Benitez will also be unable to call upon defender Ciaran Clark and winger Christian Atsu, who are both out with knee problems, although midfielder Mikel Merino is fit after missing out last weekend with a similar injury.
