One good win in Milan does not wipe out the horrors that have befallen Arsenal this season. They still have hopes of winning the Europa League but that looks to be their only way of getting into next season's Champions League. They start the weekend 13 points adrift of the top four, virtually 14 because of their vastly inferior goal difference. The win in Italy ended a run of four straight defeats in all competitions and they desperately need to get a win over Watford to try and get back that confidence that has been draining out of them in recent weeks. Their home league form is still strong with only the two Manchester clubs beating them. They take on a Watford side who are ninth in the table but in appalling form on their travels. Watford have one point from their last seven away league games and haven't scored an away goal since January 2.That's compared to a run earlier in the season when they got ten points from four away games and scored at least twice in seven straight away league matches. Watford beat Arsenal at home earlier in the season and won here last year but they aren't in that kind of form at present. They have won their last two home games to take them a comfortable nine points above the bottom three but the tip here is for Arsenal to get the home win.
