Watford travel to Coventry City today with head coach Xisco Munoz promising "new tactics" after a draw and a defeat in their last two matches.

Here's how we think they could line up.

Formation: 4231

With Munoz keeping his cards close to his chest, it's difficult to guess how much he will change. Therefore I'm going with what I think would suit the team best.

GK: Daniel Bachmann 

Unlikely to be one of the changes Munoz makes.

RB: Marc Navarro

The head coach said Kiko Femenia would not likely be fit enough to feature, so Navarro looks set to keep his place.

CB: William Troost-Ekong

May have been partially at fault for one of QPR's goals in the last game, but had to do far too much defending because of frailties within the previous system. I think he's done enough to keep his place.

CB: Francisco Sierralta

One of the first names on the team sheet at the moment after his player of the month performance in January.

LB: Jeremy Ngakia

Didn't look too comfortable against QPR but with both Adam Masina and Femenia unlikely to feature, there's not many other options.

CM: Nathaniel Chalobah

Munoz seems to really rate Chalobah in midfield. A change in formation could bring out his best.

CM: Will Hughes

The head coach said Hughes has "more potential" in the middle and looks likely to switch him back to where he can better affect the game.

CAM: Tom Cleverley

While I think Philip Zinckernagel ought to be given a chance to inject some much-needed creativity into the team, I can't see Munoz dropping Cleverley.

LW: Ken Sema

Showed how dangerous he can be with his direct runs after coming off the bench in the last game. 

RW: Ismaila Sarr

Could also benefit from having some added creativity in the side with him, but it's likely he starts again.

ST: Troy Deeney

I can't see Munoz dropping the skipper right now. He's scored a few lately, albeit all from the spot. They all count.
