Super Eagles striker Emmanuel Dennis is a doubt for Watford’s visit to Chelsea on Wednesday.

Dennis was withdrawn in the 71st minute of Watford’s 4-2 loss to Leicester on Sunday with an injury.

He had earlier scored the Hornets’ second goal in the 61st minute.

The club said on its website on Tuesday the striker was still a doubt for the Stamford Bridge game.

Watford also gave the latest update on Oghenekaro Etebo, who is recovering after his successful surgery.

“Adam Masina is expected to be fit for tomorrow’s match with Chelsea despite picking up a knock against the Foxes, however Emmanuel Dennis is a doubt after his withdrawal at the King Power Stadium.

“Juraj Kucka will be assessed after missing Sunday’s game with a minor knock to the knee, while Ken Sema – also out with a knee injury – hopes to re-join training with the squad at the end of this week.

“Francisco Sierralta (hamstring) is now running outside, and longer-term absentees Peter Etebo (quad) and Kwadwo Baah (ankle) are continuing to work at the London Colney training base on their rehabilitation programmes,” Watford said.
