Brentford vs Watford Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by Daniel Ngulu | in Championship Predictions
Second placed Watford will try to push their way to the Championship title, after securing promotion back to the Premier League. To get there, they hope Norwich lose their final two matches and they win theirs. First of the two matches is away to third placed Brentford, who have 81 points, seven below them. Brentford missed out on promotion last season, and will be hoping it turns out better in their second straight appearance in the playoffs. Much of their steam in the season wore off towards these final stages as they drew several of their matches. Heading to this game Brentford have no loss in the last nine matches but have won just three, with six ending in draws. At home, Brentford are unbeaten in the last seven matches, but have drawn four of the last five. With the playoffs coming, Brentford aren’t likely to field their key players for this game. Ivan Toney, for example, is among the players that will be rested after a tough run ahead of this game. His scoring ratio has gone down and expect manager Thomas Frank to give the 29-goal man some rest so he can get to the playoffs in top form.
Watford are coming from two straight wins, and have three clean sheets in the last four matches. they have a slim chance of winning the title, as that’s the only target they can play for at the moment. The first target has been achieved and though Watford have been on a good run, we don’t expect that with two matches remaining they can topple league leaders Norwich. They’ve won three of their last four league matches, and have just one loss in the last 11 Championship matches. After failing to score in the earlier two matches, Ismaila Sarr returned to the score sheet in the 1-0 win over Millwall, an 11th minute penalty goal that took his tally in the Championship to 13. Their recent win over Norwich was also a return to winning ways in away matches after failing to win the earlier two. Watford have now won three of their last five away league matches but generally, they haven’t been impressive away from home, with just eight wins in 22 away league matches.

Our Brentford vs Watford Prediction
As the season draws to the end, fatigue has clearly checked in and teams aren’t scoring as much as they did in the earlier stages. Brentford, even with the league’s top scorer have struggled and in the last four matches they’ve failed to score more than a goal a game. Watford have managed more than a goal in a game just once in the last six matches. With much settled in the season, we expect fringe players to get a run, and looking at the recent scoring trends, this can be a good pick for under 2.5 goals.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
