Watford 1 West Ham 0

West Ham put out a strong side. Sears came in for the injured Cole, Mullins for Parker and Lopez for Ilunga.

In a fairly even game Watford probably created the better opportunities and did enough to deserve their win.

West Ham fell behind in the second half to a Mullins own goal. After the goal West Ham roused themselves and finished quite strongly but were unable to get an equaliser.
