by Nella Wagah in Championship Predictions
Burnley will be looking to go top in the race for the Championship title when they travel to Watford. With four matches to go, Burnley are second with 88 points, while Watford started the week placed 11th with 56 points. We have the prediction for this match below.
Watford have had a tough run in the Championship this season and retain slim hopes of finishing in the top six. At 56 points, it will take a massive effort and a bit of luck to get into the playoff positions.
Wins haven't been forthcoming a lot lately, as they have just one in five matches. Last time out, Watford lost 2-1 to West Bromwich Albion.
The past few weeks have been exciting at the top end of the Championship. Burnley have been at the center of it, and they go into a pivotal week seeking to keep the momentum.
A 2-1 win at home to Norwich City stretched their unbeaten run in the league to 29 matches. In the last five outings, Burnley have amassed 13 points from a possible 15 and will hope to keep up the momentum.
If there is one area the Clarets have prevailed, it is in defence. They’ve conceded just 13 times this season, and this could be crucial as we enter the latter stages of the season.

Our Watford vs Burnley Prediction
Burnley’s next two matches are pivotal to their automatic promotion hopes. They travel to Watford and then host third-place Sheffield United next. Wins in these two matches will secure a Premier League return for the Clarets. Heading into this one on Good Friday, the visitors will seek to extend their good run.
Watford can’t afford to drop more points in the top six chase, but this game is a level above. They face one of the best in the league, and their current form isn’t inspiring. Our prediction for Watford v Burnley is for Burnley to win and under 2.5 goals.
