Chelsea are coming from a home draw with German side Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League and they while they are chasing the Europa League title, they will also be looking to stay in the top four back in England, just in case it comes to be their only avenue back to the Champions League. Chelsea have one win in their last five matches and no clean sheet in the process. They are unbeaten in their last eight matches at home and in their final home match of the season, they will be hoping to improve on the 2 – 2 draw with Burnley last time out at home. They have four wins in the last five meetings with Watford and they will be hoping to extend the same. Watford, on their part, are set to play Manchester City in the FA Cup final and will want to test themselves against a top four side, and this will be an ideal game for them. They have picked just one win over Chelsea in the last 13 meetings and will be hoping for a second here. Just like Chelsea, they have five wins in their last 10 matches, and they will be fresher, by the fact they didn’t have midweek assignments. What will worry them though is the fact that they have lost three matches out of their last five away games and all these losses have come at the hands of top six sides. They also don’t have a clean sheet in their last five matches away from home. This match has seen both sides score in each of the last five while nine of the last 10 meetings have ended in over 2.5 goals. In 22 meetings, Chelsea have 12 wins and Watford six.
