Watford boss Roy Hodgson says he’s looking forward to a “special” match against former employers Crystal Palace when the two sides go toe-to-toe at Vicarage Road on Wednesday.
The 74-year-old spent four seasons in south London with the Eagles before departing last summer and taking some time away from the dugout.
He has since returned to the top level of management as the Hornets’ third permanent manager of the season following Spanish coach Xisco and Claudio Ranieri, both of whom were axed with Watford’s Premier League status still hanging in the balance.
