Stoke vs Watford Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship
by James | in Championship Predictions
Two clubs chasing promotion duke it out in the Championship on Friday when Stoke City welcome Watford to the Bet365 Stadium. The visiting Hornets are third in the table with a points tally of 43 from 24 games, league leaders Norwich seven points ahead of them. Stoke are six points behind their opponents in seventh place, the nearest playoff spot four points away. That gap will widen for the Potters unless their form improves. Michael O'Neill's team failed to win eight of their previous nine Championship matches. While only two of those games ended in defeat for Stoke, their failure to win fixtures will result in them missing out on a playoff spot. Stoke must make the most of their home form if they are to meet their promotion objective. Two wins from six games is not a good enough record to make it into that bracket come the season's end. Games at Stoke tend to be low-scoring, four of the last five featuring fewer than three goals.
Watford warmed up for this tie with a 1-0 home victory over Barnsley. It was their third win in four matches, each triumph coming on home turf. Away from home, Watford have been far worse, failing to win nine of their last 11 games on the road. Ten of those games featured fewer than three goals. It would not be surprising if this match were low on thrills. Four of the previous five meetings between these teams featured fewer than three goals. Back under 2.5 goals to be scored this time around.
