A goal from Craig Cathcart earned Watford a slender 1-0 win over Middlesbrough in the opening game of the 2020/21 Championship season.Boro's Britt Assombalonga came close to levelling the scores on several occasions and the visitors' best opening came when the frontman's curling free-kick was tipped over the bar by Hornets 'keeper Ben Foster.
But a collective defensive effort from the hosts helped nullify the threat of their opponents and start new manager Vladimir Ivic's reign in an ideal manner.
A run of six defeats in the final eight Premier League fixtures of last season condemned Watford to relegation and a first Championship season since 2014/15.
