Watford's promotion charge was slowed by rivals Luton Town yesterday as they turned in a poor performance in a 1-0 defeat.

Here's how we rated their individual performances.

Daniel Bachmann - 6.5

Had a lot thrown at him and on the whole did okay. Wasn't helped out at times by his defenders.

Achraf Lazaar - 2.5

An atrocious display from the full-back. Granted, he only found out he was playing late on, but he was responsible for the goal and was very easily beaten throughout the game, while on the ball he offered very little.

Francisco Sierralta - 6

One of only a few outfield players to come away with any credibility intact. Defended valiantly at some points, but was much busier than he should have been.

William Troost-Ekong - 6

Another who did well for the most part with the players in front of him not preventing the ball from coming back his way. The score could have been much higher without the two centre backs.

Kiko Femenia - 3

Regularly left the centre backs exposed with Luton frequently targeting both full-backs. Is now suspended for a huge game on Tuesday night after two silly fouls.

Will Hughes - 4.5

A birthday to forget for Hughes who was completely overrun in the centre.

Carlos Sanchez - 4

Offered little of the control he provided against Reading.

Philip Zinckernagel - 3

Scrappy midfield battles aren't his forte, but even in the rare attacking moments, he was well off the boil.

Ken Sema - 4

Had absolutely no chance to get into the match with the midfield completely dominated by the hosts.

Ismaila Sarr - 5

Cut a frustrated figure out on the right. Tried to attack a bit more in the second half, but by then it was too little too late.

Joao Pedro - 3.5

Hardly his fault but had absolutely nothing to work with. Dropped really deep to get into the game but it didn't help.

SUBS

Isaac Success - 3

Xisco Munoz clearly thinks the striker has something about him but he's done little to impress anyone else since returning.

Tom Cleverley - 4

Still not fully match fit, offered nothing that wasn't already on show after his arrival.

Joseph Hungbo - N/A

Andre Gray - N/A

Players must have played 15 minutes to get a rating.
