Watford vs Aston Villa live stream as the newly promoted Hornets return to the Premier League while Villa look to establish a new identity after the departure of Jack Grealish. Both teams have been busy in the transfer market and the new players should make this an unpredictable and exciting match.

Villa have a big hole in their Grealish ranks, but they have acquired Championship player of the year Emi Buendia, proven striker Danny Ings, versatile winger Ashley Young, and the remarkable Leon Bailey. The latter will be on the bench for today's game, but all three others will start.

Watford has plenty of talent, including newcomers Emmanuel Dennis and Yulai Kucka. And their record at Vicarage Road has been brilliant, with nine wins in their last nine matches. Of course, now that they are back in the Premier League, it will be more difficult for them to maintain their home field advantage.

Here is the lineup:

Watford: Backman, Kabasele, Tolsto-Ekong, Cathcart, Masina, Sir, Cleverley, Etebo, Kucka, Sema, Dennis

Aston Villa Martinez, Cash, Consa, Mings, Target,. Nakamba, McGinn, El Ghazi, Buendia, Young, Ings
