Impact Kucka logged more than half of the Watford team's shots. The 35-year-old remains its most promising midfielder, especially following his recovery from an undisclosed injury.

Juraj Kucka - Eight shots all game Kucka (undisclosed) attempted eight shots across 90 minutes during a 2-1 loss Saturday versus Burnley.
Ben Foster - Okay end to bad April Foster conceded two goals but logged four saves during a 2-1 loss Saturday versus Burnley.
Impact Despite conceding goals to Josh Brownhill and Jack Cork, Foster compensated for those by logging four saves. The 39-year-old's most recent stat line was his best across an awful April he endured. Foster averaged 2.8 conceded goals and recorded a 50.0 save percentage.

Juraj Kucka - Expected to be available Saturday Watford manager Roy Hodgson said Friday that Kucka (undisclosed) has returned to training with Watford and should be available for selection in Saturday's clash against Burnley.
Impact Kucka missed last weekend's defeat to Manchester City with a knock, but he has recovered now and is expected to be fit enough to face Burnley.

Impact Femenia missed last weekend's defeat to Manchester City with a knock, but he's back with he team now and might be ready to return to right back against Burnley.

Nicolas N`Koulou - Returns to bench in loss Nkoulou (hamstring) was on the bench for Saturday's loss against Manchester City.
Impact Nkoulou was finally back in the squad against Man City after missing the majority of the season with a hamstring injury. He got a couple starts prior to injury back in November and may draw another start in the final month, as Watford haven't had much defensive success under Roy Hodgson.

Ben Foster - Concedes five in loss Foster conceded five goals and made four saves during Saturday's 5-1 loss to Manchester City.
Impact Foster doesn't even have the saves to back up his poor record this season, as recently he's made just 18 stops and conceded 20 goals in the last seven matches (all losses). He'll still get a favorable matchup against Burnley, which have scored the second-fewest goals in the league.
APRIL 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Hassane Kamara - Finds net in loss Kamara scored one goal from one shot and made four interceptions during Saturday's 5-1 loss to Manchester City.
Impact Kamara squeezed in a loan goal for the Hornets in the midst of three scored in the first half and two by City just after the break. While this goal is more of an aberration for Kamara, who's taken just four shots all season, he ranks seventh in the EPL in interceptions made and also contributes a fair number of tackles (49 in 15 games). Up next is a visit from Burnley, which have scored the second-fewest goals in the league.
APRIL 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Emmanuel Dennis - Logs assist in loss Dennis provided one assist from two chances created and put one shot on target during Saturday's 5-1 loss to Manchester City.
Impact Dennis helped make a one-sided loss look slightly better as he contributed to a second goal in two matches (one goal, one assist). He'll next face Burnley, which are tied for the second-most goals conceded to forwards in the league.

Kiko Femenia - Out against Man City Femenia is not in the squad for Saturday's match against Manchester City because of a minor knock.
Impact It's not the best match for Femenia to miss, as Jeremy Ngakia is in his spot Saturday despite struggling whenever called upon this season. Femenia was forced out late in the match last weekend and it looks like that issue has been a problem all week.
APRIL 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Juraj Kucka - Out with knock Kucka is not in the squad for Saturday's match against Manchester City because of a minor knock.
Impact Kucka misses out Saturday in an almost impossible match at Man City, which means Tom Cleverley is back in the starting XI. Kucka had produced seven shots and 10 tackles in his last four starts, but similar to the rest of Watford, the upside has been limited.

William Troost-Ekong - Back in full training Troost-Ekong (hamstring) has returned to full training ahead of Saturday's trip to Manchester City.
Impact Troost-Ekong has been out the past month or so with this injury, but he hasn't played since Jan. 1, so even though he's available, it's unlikely he'll be in the starting XI in his first match back. He was a regular earlier in the season, but he's struggled to find fitness and time under Roy Hodgson, something that may not change the rest of the way.

Ben Foster - Busy in loss Foster made three saves during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Brentford.
Impact Foster has been hung out to dry by a poor defense more often than not, and that looks unlikely to change anytime soon. The keeper had plenty to do but the chances were golden opportunities, and Foster was hopeless to stop them. He will be under absolute siege against Manchester City next time out.
APRIL 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Kiko Femenia - Seven crosses in loss Femenia sent in seven crosses (four accurate), creating two chances during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Brentford.
Impact Femenia had another busy performance down the right side of the midfield, once again peppering crosses in. Unfortunately for fantasy managers none of the crosses were overly dangerous and Femenia was left with only two chances created. Next up is a nearly impossible trip to Manchester City.
APRIL 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Ismaila Sarr - Assists Saturday Sarr provided one assist on one chance created during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Brentford.
Impact Sarr provided a single assist during Saturday's loss, but otherwise struggling throughout the match. The winger hasn't found much joy in a poor Watford attack lately, and is looking likely to come nowhere near the 13 goals, four assist mark he set in the 2020/21 campaign. Sarr has a brutally difficult match against Manchester City next time out.
