LIVE: Tottenham vs Watford

19' Back-to-back corners for Tottenham now, after Watford fail to clear the danger from the first set piece. Spurs look strong at corners so far, causing the Watford defence to panic.

17' Tottenham have looked more dangerous in front of goal in the last few minutes, creating a few opportunities, but the visitors are still seeing plenty of the ball so they need to be careful at the back.

15' Decent save! The ball drops to Sarr at the far post just inside the penalty area, he dribbles past Reguilon and then fires a shot towards goal. However, the effort is too close to Lloris, who makes a good stop.

13' CHANCE! Really good move by Spurs, they open up the Watford defence as Tangaga sneaks down the right wing and pulls the ball back from the byline in the nick of time. Alli misses the header, but it falls to Bergwijn, who volleys an effort towards goal, but his shot is deflected over the bar.

11' Spurs have lost just one of their last 16 league games against Watford (W9 D6), going down 2-1 at Vicarage Road in September 2018.

9' Decent effort! Spurs work the ball well in the final third and Reguilon delivers a cross in from the left wing, which falls to Skipp, who then lays it off to Kane. The striker then tries to loop it over Bachmann and into the far corner of the net. However, it flies over the bar.

7' Watford are seeing plenty of the ball in the opening stages of the game, forcing Spurs back into their own half and the hosts don't look particularly comfortable at the back.

5' Sarr is already causing problems down the right wing for Watford, with Reguilon forced to dive in deep into the final third and give away a free-kick in order to stop him from sprinting into the box.

3' The pace of the game is electric early on, both teams are pushing forward and look dangerous in front of goal. Can either side grab an early goal?

1' Blocked! Watford counter quickly up the pitch and get the ball into the box from the left, it finds its way to Sissoko, who lays it off to Kucka, but his effort is well blocked by Dier.

1' PENALTY SHOUT! Kane is involved in the action straight away and goes down appealing for a penalty, but the referee waves away his appeals. Kane turned and tried to control the ball in the box, but Etebo barges into the back of him. It looked a little bit soft.

1' We're under way!

The teams are out on the pitch and kick-off is just a few minutes away, stay tuned for all the match action!
