Watford bounced back to the Premier League at the first time of asking after Saturday's 1-0 win over Millwall sealed promotion.
Brentford's win at Bournemouth earlier in the day meant that only three points would be good enough for Xisco Munoz's men to be promoted alongside Norwich, who came down with them last season.
Ismaila Sarr's early penalty gave Watford the perfect start, but they had to withstand a nervy finale to guarantee their place back in the prestige and riches of the English top-flight.
