MATCH FACTS

Head-to-head

• Nottingham Forest just have the edge after 38 league meetings since 1949; the east Midland club have won 13, Watford 12.

• But Watford have the better recent record with a 3-0 win at the City Ground in December last year and 2-0 triumph in this fixture eight months ago; Matej Vydra scored four of those goals and Troy Deeney, the other.

• Forest's only maximum in the last five Championship trips to Vicarage Road was 1-0 in September 2011, courtesy of Ishmael Miller's winner.

Watford

• The Hornets opened the season with a 1-0 win at Birmingham, then put six past Bournemouth in their first home league game, and shared six goals with Reading at the Madejski last time out.

• Victory will equal Watford's best start to a league campaign in 13 seasons.

• Last season's top Championship scorers have failed to find the net in only one of their last 17 league and cup games at Vicarage Road.

Nottingham Forest

• Forest defend the only remaining 100% winning record in the Championship, and the division's only surviving watertight defence.

• They are looking to bag 12 points out of 12 at the outset of a second level season for the first time in 16 years.

• Billy Davies' side have not scored more than two goals in any of their last 17 league games on the road.
