Martin Atkinson will be the man in the middle when Watford host Stoke in a televised clash at Vicarage Road on Sunday.
The West Yorkshire official will be taking charge of his second Hornets game of the season, having previously officiated their opening win of the campaign, an entertaining 4-2 victory at West Ham.
Last year, he oversaw Watford's 2-0 win over the Potters at the bet365 Stadium, as well as a 2-1 home defeat by Manchester City.
Atkinson, 45, was last in the middle for Everton's 1-1 draw with Swansea on Saturday, when he rightly awarded the visitors a first-half penalty.
He has refereed 10 Premier League games this season, issuing one red card, a harshly-deserved dismissal to West Ham's Aaron Cresswell in their 1-0 win at Crystal Palace.
