Prediction published on 05/04/2022, 23:06  by Indran in Premier League Predictions

Watford welcomes Leeds meet to Vicarage Road for this crucial match in the Premier League. The hosts are in 18th position with 22 points while the visitors are in 16th place with 30 points. Watford are in serious relegation trouble and are three points from safety but the team above them has two games in hand. Their chances of survival are very slim and anything but a win could see them playing in the Championship next season. Watford have the worst home record in the league picking up just seven points in their 14 matches with only two wins. They have lost 11 home matches this season and lost the last nine consecutively. There have only been three teams that escaped relegation after losing 11 matches at home. Their points tally away from home is more than double their home points. Watford have won their last two home matches against Leeds and have only lost one of their last eight home matches against them.

Leeds had a 1-1 draw with Southampton in their last match which extended their unbeaten run to three matches. They are now eight points above Watford but have played an extra match. Leeds will not feel safe and will want to win this match and secure their top flight status. They won their last away match to Wolves which ended a run of three consecutive away losses. Leeds are looking to complete their first league double over Watford since the 1999/00 season which was also the last time the sides met in top flight football. Since Leeds return to the Premiership they have won seven of their eight matches against newly promoted team which is the best record against such opposition during this time.
