Watford had the chance to reduce the scoreline before the halftime when Will Hughes provided a dangerous pass for Tom Cleverly, but the former Man United midfielder was unable to beat Bernd Leno.
Cleverley however made amends in the second half, pulling one back for Watford in the 53rd minute following Sokratis Papasthaopoulous' defensive blunder.
Buoyed by the goal, the hosts kept pressing high, with their efforts paying off in the 81st minute, restoring parity from the penalty spot via Pereyra who was brought down in the dangerous area by David Luiz.
