SUN LOUNGERS
It should be back to the wall time for Watford but looking at this Newcastle side today, I just don't think they want it enough. These two teams will be fighting for the sun lounger by the pool after this game, and based on this performance I'd back Watford any time.
84'
Substitution
Mikel Merino (on). Mohamed Diame (off). (Newcastle United)
83'
ESCAPE
Jamaal Lascelles is perhaps lucky to escape a booking after a clumsy challenge on Will Hughes.
80'
Substitution
Richarlison (on). Andre Gray (off). (Watford)
90'
CORNERS
A series of Newcastle corners yields nothing in terms of a goal and this one looks all but over.
79'
TEN TO GO
We are drifting towards the last ten minutes here now. Newcastle have been much better in this half but it would be hard to play worse than they did in the first period.
75'
POST
A Shelvey corner from the right is flicked goalwards cleverly by Ayoze Perez, but the Spaniard sees his effort rebound off the post and out for a goal-kick.
72'
Yellow Card
Jose Holebas (Watford)
72'
LAST TWENTY
We're into the final 20 minutes of this one. Can Newcastle salvage an unlikely point?
8'
WATFORD ALL OVER
Watford are absolutely all over Newcastle here, playing with a real intensity. They have three decent chances in ten seconds, the final one falling to Etienne Capoue but his shot flies wide. Newcastle need to wake up or this could get embarassing.
90'
GAME OVER
The final whistle goes and Watford take all three points despite a late rally from Newcastle. Thank you for joining us.
67'
Substitution
DeAndre Yedlin (on). Javi Manquillo (off). (Newcastle United)
66'
HEADER
Adrian Mariappa almost gets his side into trouble, heading a cross back at his 'keeper faster that he meant to.
62'
Substitution
Adrian Mariappa (on). Troy Deeney (off). (Watford)
61'
GRAY CHANCE
A chance falls to Andre Gray but he can't excape the attentions of the Newcastle defence and the away side clear.
59'
Yellow Card
Christian Kabasele (Watford)
57'
AYOZE
Ayoze Perez gets one back well against the run of play. A cross from the right floated over everybody and found Perez unmarked at the back post and the Spaniard finished well. Game on? Maybe.
56'
Substitution
Gerard Deulofeu (on). Roberto Pereyra (off). (Watford)
55'
Goal
Ayoze Perez. Assist by Javi Manquillo (Newcastle United)
55'
GOOOAAALLL!!!
Newcastle pull one back!
53'
Substitution
Matt Ritchie (on). Jacob Murphy (off). (Newcastle United)
53'
GOOD START
Watford have started well, looking threatening whenever they go forward. Newcastle, on the other hand, haven't.
49'
THROUGH BALL
A curved through-ball from Shelvey almost finds his man but it drifts through to Karnezis who is still yet to be tested.
46'
SECOND HALF
Here we go for the second half. Can Newcastle rescue an unlikely result here? I wouldn't count on it after that insipid first half display but stranger things have happened.
45'
HALF-TIME
The half-time whistle goes and at the break, Watford lead 2-0.
43'
FLIP-FLOPS
Forget what I said earlier about Watford being on the beach - Newcastle are playing in flip-flops at the minute. Awful from the black and whites, they just don't look interested.
42'
Yellow Card
Ayoze Perez (Newcastle United)
5'
GOOD START
Newcastle were guilty of some atrocious defending there. Roberto Pereyra could hardly miss when presented with the ball eight yards out and was unerring in his finish. Really poor from the away side but a great start for Watford.
41'
POOR
That is Troy Deeney's second missed penalty of the season and it was a really poor effort. Dubravka saved the first effort low to his right and sprang up again to save the follow up. It really should be three for Watford here.
39'
PENALTY SAVED
The referee gives a penalty to Watford.... and Troy Deeney sees his effort saved!
33'
DRIVEN
With over a third of the game gone, Newcastle are yet to test Karnezis in the Watford goal. Jonjo Shelvey has a driven effort blocked on the edge of the box by Kabasele but it would have had to be special to go in from there.
30'
GRAY
A floated ball towards the back post finds Dubravka all at sea, the Slovakian 'keeper helpless to stop the ball drifting over him to Andre Gray who couldn't miss. Dreadful again from Newcastle.
28'
Goal
Andre Gray. Assist by Roberto Pereyra (Watford)
28'
GOOOAAALLL!!!
Watford double their lead! Andre Gray bags one and it's a long way back for Newcastle now.
3'
GOOOAAALLL!!!
Watford take the lead! Roberto Pereyra puts the home side in front!
2'
Goal
Roberto Pereyra. Assist by Abdoulaye Doucoure (Watford)
25'
POSSESSION
Newcastle have had the better of the game in terms of possession, but by almost every other metric, Watford are on top here. That doesn't look like changing any time soon either.
21'
TOON
There hasn't been a lot to shout about for the Geordie faithful here, thousands of them packed into the away end as always. There team aren't doing much to justify their supporters faith.
16'
SHOT
Newcastle register a shot, with Kenedy firing wide via a deflection off his own player.
11'
HOME ADVANTAGE
All eleven Watford goals under Javi Gracia have come at home, and they look well positioned to add to that total here against a shaky looking Newcastle side.
1'
WATFORD
Watford come in to this game on a wretched run of form. They have been on the proverbial beach for a while now but are not statistically guaranteed safety as of yet.
1'
UNDERWAY
We're underway at Vicarage Road.
