Referee for Bouremouth game confirmed
The Premier League have confirmed that Mike Dean will referee Watford's match against Bournemouth this weekend at Vicarage Road.
Dean took charge of Watford three times last season, one of which resulting in a win for the Golden Boys. He was the man-in-the-middle for the Hornets' 2-0 victory over Norwich City in December 2015 and he also took charge of Watford's draw with Chelsea at Vicarage Road in February.
As well as the above, Dean also refereed Watford's 3-1 defeat to West Ham at Upton Park in April earlier this year. During that game, he sent off Nordin Amrabat for two bookable offences.
The Wirral based official is an experienced top-flight referee, having officiated matches in the Premier League for the past 16 years.
This season, Dean has refereed five matches, handing out 23 yellow cards and one red.
