Watford vs Sheffield United Prediction & Betting Tips - Championship

Prediction published on 30/07/2022, 11:59 by Indran in Championship Predictions

Watford plays host to Sheffield United at Vicarage Road for these teams opening match in the Championship. When this match begins both teams will be three points behind the leaders and will be desperate to win to also go joint top of the table. The home team had a horror season in the Premier League last season and eventually got relegated, ending a massive 15 points behind from safety. Watford have reacted to their relegation by appointing a new manager in Rob Edwards. He is more than 30 years younger than the teams two previous managers and it is hoped he bring new, fresh ideas to the club. Watford have had a mixed bag of results in pre-season with just the single win to go with two draws and two losses. They have only won once in their last 18 home matches across all competitions dating back to last season.

Sheffield United warmed up for this match with a 2-1 loss to Barnsley in their last match which was their third loss in four matches. The visitors have had a fairly lengthy pre-season consisting of six matches with three wins and three losses. Sheffield United will want to put behind them the way they ended last season when they lost in the playoffs to Nottingham Forest. They will be aiming for a top two spot which will guarantee them a spot in the Premier League. Sheffield United will have a difficult task on their hands as they have yet to beat Watford in the last five meetings between these sides. They have a poor away record with three losses in their last four matches.

Our Watford vs Sheffield United Prediction

Watford know that the first thing that they need to change from last season is their form at home. They only won two of their 19 home games and for them to return to top flight football they need to start with a home win. Sheffield United have struggled against Watford in recent years and last won at Vicarage Road in 2009. We are backing Watford to win or draw this match.
