🗞️ Team News: Watford

The Watford manager Valérien Ismaël has zero fitness worries to speak of ahead of this clash with a fully injury-free squad to choose from.

We are thinking that The Hornets should use the 4-3-3 formation featuring Daniel Bachmann, Jeremy Ngakia, Ryan Porteous, Wesley Hoedt, Ken Sema, Imran Louza, Francisco Sierralta, Tom Dele-Bashiru, Tom Ince, Matheus Martins and Mileta Rajovic.

ℹ️ Team News: Birmingham City

Thanks to a completely injury-free group available to select from, the Birmingham City boss John Eustace doesn’t have any fitness worries to speak of ahead of this clash.

We are inclined to think that The Blues might make use of a 4-2-3-1 system with a starting lineup of John Ruddy, Cody Drameh, Dion Sanderson, Kevin Long, Lee Buchanan, Ivan Sunjic, Krystian Bielik, Koji Miyoshi, Jay Stansfield, Keshi Anderson and Scott Hogan.

💭 Prediction

In our view, Birmingham City may find it difficult to get anything against this Watford side who we think will likely end up scoring and possibly keep a clean sheet as well.

We’re therefore predicting a 1-0 winning margin for Watford at the end of the 90 minutes.

Let’s see what happens.
