Watford v Liverpool (1245 GMT)Watford v Liverpool (1245 GMT)
I think you'll see a reaction from Liverpool after the defeat to Arsenal in the Carling Cup.
Like most people who follow Liverpool, I thought Rafael Benitez got the team balance completely wrong on Tuesday but he'll pick a strong team against Watford.
Hornets boss Aidy Boothroyd will be cursing his luck that Liverpool are his next opponents just after they have taken a heavy defeat. It's the story of their season, I'm afraid.
