Watford failed to make their chances count as they were held to a scoreless draw by Middlesbrough.

The Hornets had the majority of the opportunities at Vicarage Road, but did not give their fans much to cheer for as they failed to find a way past Victor Valdes.

At the other end, Heurelho Gomes was forced off injured, giving manager Walter Mazzarri with much to sweat over.
