The Blues are heavy favourites to continue their brilliant start to the season by claiming maximum points at Vicarage Road.
Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Manchester United marked only the second time in 11 matches that Thomas Tuchel’s side have not been victorious.
They have won on each of their last two visits to this ground, but have never beaten the Hornets away from home on three successive occasions.
Also, the Blues have failed to win their last five Premier League matches played on a Wednesday.
That will encourage Watford, who find themselves just four points above the relegation zone having lost six of their last nine games.
Claudio Ranieri faces his former club once again, and will be urging his players to draw inspiration from the resounding 4-1 victory over Manchester United in their last home game.
