Both of these teams struggle for consistency but still have a chance of European football next season. Seventh place might just qualify a team for the Europa League and Watford are currently eighth with their opponents in ninth. Watford come into this game having won just one of their last seven league games. It's not quite as bad as it sounds though as four games have been drawn and their only loss was at Tottenham. Home form has seen them win one of the last six but it's been a tough fixture list with recent visitors including Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea, all of whom came away from Vicarage Road with a win. The last two home games have ended in low-scoring draws.

Everton are in niinth place but lost again in midweek. They are  a point behind their opponents but from a game more and the loss to Manchester City was their sixth in eight games. Their boss Marco Silva is coming under increasing pressure and he'll face a rough reception as he returns to his former club Watford as will Richarlison. Everton have only won two of their last eight away league games and have lost six of their 12 away league games this season. This isn't easy to predict and a bet of under 2.5 goals is the suggested tip.
