Watford will start with the pairing of Grzegorz Rasiak and Tamas Priskin up front for today's trip to Coventry.

Both strikers have been injured of late but Rasiak put in a solid second-half display in the defeat to Birmingham last week and Priskin has recovered from the knee injury he obtained in the draw with Barnsley.

The duo's return to the starting line-up will see Tommy Smith make his 300th Watford appearance on the right of midfield against Coventry left back Marcus Hall, who is also making his 300th appearance.

The midfield is completed by Ross Jenkins, Jack Cork and Jobi McAnuff.

The back five will be the same as the previous seven games with Scott Loach behind Lloyd Doyley, Jay DeMerit, Mike Williamson and Adrian Mariappa.

Coventry: Westwood; Osbourne, Turner, Ward, Hall; Simpson, Gunnarsson, Doyle, Fox; Eastwood, Morrison. Subs: Ireland, McPake, Thornton, Grandison, Cain.

Watford: Loach; Mariappa, DeMerit, Williamson, Doyley; Smith, Cork, Jenkins, McAnuff; Rasiak, Priskin. Subs: Lee, Harley, Stepanov, Rose, Cauna.
