Watford

WLDLWL

Watford will be wanting a better result here following a 2-1 Championship loss in their previous game against West Bromwich Albion.

In that match, Watford had 61% possession and 15 shots on goal with 3 of them on target. The only player to score for Watford was Moussa Sissoko (76'). For their opponents, West Bromwich Albion had 10 attempts on goal with 5 on target. Karlan Ahearne-Grant (11') and Mikey Johnston (60') scored for West Bromwich Albion.

Watford have found it difficult to unlock defences in more recent games. Their sum of goals equals just 4 against opposition teams over their last 6 fixtures. In those games, Watford have also seen the number of goals scored against them total 5. Regardless, we must now wait to see if such a trend shall continue on in this next match or not.

Analysis of their past results shows that Watford:

• have not registered a win against Burnley in their previous 2 league matches.
• have not been beaten in their last 3 home league matches.
