Spurs Vs Watford Team News: Super Eagles Star Success Likely To Start For Hornets

Published: September 26, 2018

Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that one-cap Nigeria international Isaac Success is set to make his second straight start in the Carabao Cup when Watford take on Tottenham Hotspur at Stadium mk (Milton Keynes) on Wednesday evening.

Based on Watford's last training session before their short trip to Buckinghamshire, manager Javi Gracia has opted to name the Nigerian striker in the starting line-up.

The former Granada starlet has impressed in two appearances for The Hornets in this competition, bagging an assist in their 3-2 loss to Bristol City in the second round last season and opened the scoring in a 2-0 win over Reading last month.

Having fallen out of favour under the departed Marco Silva, Success has the trust of Gracia and it is for that reason he has been utilized in every single Premier League match played by Watford this season.

One of the stand-out stars for Tottenham during pre-season, Luke Amos, is available for selection and would make his full debut for the North London side if he is named in the starting line-up.

The Tottenham U23 skipper made his senior debut on the opening day of the season against Newcastle United when he replaced Eric Dier in the 88th minute.
