Manchester City overcame the threat of Bournemouth on Saturday to pick a clinical 3 – 1 win at the Etihad Stadium and in the process posted their 15th straight unbeaten game, with 13 wins therein. With just two wins in the last 11 matches across all competitions, Watford head to this game on a very weak footing, while the fact that they have not scored in three of their last four matches will not put them in a very good position, facing a team that has literally been unstoppable in the season. Watford started the season on a high, with four straight wins, but after that they have managed just two wins in the Premier League. In their early season run, Watford beat Tottenham Hotspur, and they will fancy their chances against another top three team but it will not be easy with the poor defensive show they have had at home in the last four matches, conceding nine. Watford have conceded two or more goals in three of their last four matches. Manchester City have scored two or more goals in each of their last seven matches; they have failed to score just once this season (against Liverpool) and have scored less than two goals on just three occasions. Manchester City have also picked eight straight wins over Watford and are unbeaten in 12 matches against Watford, whose last win in this fixture came way back in 1987. In 18 meetings between the two sides, Watford have managed just four wins, while City have managed 11 wins.
