Watford have received a boost with the news that Roberto Pereyra is back in first team training.

The attacking midfielder should be available to boss Quique Sanchez Flores for their key game against Southampton.

The Hornets know they must get all three points against the Saints if they want to climb out of the relegation places.

And Pereyra's return could be what Watford needs to spark their attack into life.

He should travel with the team, and could be named on the bench.

Troy Deeney is another who could start the game after improving his fitness all week.

He came off the bench in the last game against Burnley.
