Watford have been enjoying a decent Championship season so far. They have managed to maintain their impressive form going. Do also note that they have managed to seal four unbeaten recordings in the past five league fixtures.
Meanwhile, Blackburn have also been enjoying their run this season. They are positioned at seventh, one spot and one point away from Watford.
Watford was unbeaten in five of the last six head to head clashes against Blackburn. However, the reverse fixture ended in a 2-0 win for Blackburn.
At this venue, Watford is on a five-game unbeaten streak and four of them were victories. Four of those five matches had goals over 2.5.
Watford’s recent inconsistency has affected their recordings at home. They were winless in three of the past five home outings. However, two of them were draws.
On the other side, Blackburn have also been recording the same inconsistency on the road. In that case, the h2h upper hand counts much.
Since Watford rather have a superior form against Blackburn at this venue in the recent tradition, we expect a win for them on Saturday.
Although their h2h tradition suggests a high-scoring scenario, we don’t expect a display like that considering the recent goal trend of both these sides. they have been recording low-scoring matches in a consistent rate of late. Therefore, we expect goals under 2.5 in this match.
We are quite not sure about the possibility of a both teams scoring display here. Since we expect a low-scoring match with a victory for Watford, both teams to score is not an ideal option for us to pick as an alternative.
The current stats of both assures an interesting battle here. Anyways, Watford have managed to deliver a much better display against Blackburn lately.
Therefore, we like to place Watford to win at 1.91 odds as the main tip here. Under 2.5 goals at 1.73 odds seems to be a decent alternative considering the recent goal trend of both.
