Javi Gracia: 'Christian Kabasele, Craig Cathcart could return on Saturday'

Watford manager Javi Gracia reveals that recovering duo Christian Kabasele and Craig Cathcart could return for the Hornets against Huddersfield Town on Saturday.

Watford boss Javi Gracia has revealed that Christian Kabasele and Craig Cathcart could feature for their Premier League clash with Huddersfield Town on Saturday.

Kabasele has not played for the Hornets since pulling his hamstring in January, while Cathcart made the bench in last weekend's game against Burnley following a hip injury.

Gracia's side are currently 12th in the Premier League, and a win at the John Smith's Stadium this weekend could push them into the top half of the table.

"Both [Kabasele and Cathcart] are in full training so then I have to make a decision and see if it's the best moment for them to play, what the team needs in this moment, and I'll try to balance that and make a good decision," Gracia told reporters.

"[Nathaniel] Chalobah and [Gerard] Deulofeu are not training with the team but are improving day-by-day and [Tom] Cleverley is another situation. He is behind them. He is working out of the team, but not at the same level as Chalobah and Gerard."

"There were a lot of injured players when I arrived and now I have more options to choose from. I think it's the best news for the team because every player competes to play in the next game."

Watford are without a win in four games, with the club stuck on 37 points.
