Prediction: 2-1
Watford
Bristol City will be aiming to recover from a 1-0 loss to Burnley when they take on Watford in the Championship round 40. The Robins continue with fine performances at home, with the team winning three of their last four games at Ashton Gate Stadium and it is no wonder the bookies see them as favourites to win Saturday’s encounter. Both Ross McCrorie and Nakhi Wells are in line for recalls to the starting XI, while duo Robert Atkinson – Luke McNally remains in the recovery room.
The Hornets, on the other hand, aim to rejoin the playoffs race, but given their difficulties on the road, there is a big value in betting on the home side. The good news for the visiting team is that defender James Abankwah is back to the starting XI after missing out the Oxford United game through suspension.
Highlighted Team (Bristol City):
Bristol City are one of the two famous clubs from the city of Bristol. Formed in 1894 the Robins mostly participated in English lower leagues and they have never played in the Premier League. Bristol City’s bitterest rivals are Bristol Rovers and it has to be noted that two teams first met in 1897. Bristol City have outplayed their local rivals on 43 occasions in the Bristol Derby.
Cardiff City are regarded as Bristol City’s bitter rivals as well. The Robins play their home games at Ashton Gate, the stadium that was opened in 1887. Bristol City were semi-finalists of the League Cup two times (1970/1971, 1988/1989), with the team making it to the FA Cup final in 1909.
The Robins faced Manchester United in the title game, but they failed to upset the English giants in the Crystal Palace clash. It is well known that Bristol City footballers wear red shirts and blue shorts.
