Watford v Plymouth Argyle: How to watch, TV channel, kick-off time, head-to-head stats and team news

Tom Cleverley's Watford side have made a strong start to the season by winning all four games and they will get another chance to shine as Plymouth Argyle come to visit for a second-round EFL Cup clash.

The Hornets are one of only two Championship teams to start with three victories, while they put five past MK Dons in their League Cup opener earlier this month.

Plymouth knocked out League Two side Cheltenham Town in the last round, but manager Wayne Rooney is winless after three Championship games and watched his side go down to nine men against Queens Park Rangers over the weekend - though they did hold out for a point.

Watford team news

Tom Ince netted a hat-trick in the previous round as Watford dispatched MK Dons 5-0, but the midfielder hasn't featured in the league wins over Stoke or Derby since. He may get a recall here.

Cleverley brought on Ken Sema, Kwadwo Baah and Ryan Porteous in the weekend win over Derby and that trio may see more game time in this match.

Freddie Issaka and Adam Forshaw were sent off at Loftus Road on Saturday leaving Rooney with some rethinking to do now, while Brendan Galloway also went off injured in that contest.

Loanee Michael Obafemi came off the bench against QPR after joining from Burnley last week and the Republic of Ireland striker may get the nod to start now.
