Prediction: 1-1
Watford
Birmingham City will look to recover from a 1-0 loss to Middlesbrough when they take on Watford in the Championship round 38. The Blues do not seem to be at their sharpest in the season finale, with the team sitting in the danger zone ahead of Saturday’s clash. To make things even worse for the home side, important defender Marc Roberts suffered an injury in the midweek defeat.
The Hornets suffered a dip in form as well, with the team collecting only one point in total from the last four league fixtures. As Watford are eager to grab something from the St. Andrew’s Stadium game as well, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Vakoun Issouf Bayo is widely expected to return to the starting XI after Giorgi Chakvetadze limped off with injury in a 2-1 loss to Coventry City. Defender Jeremy Ngakia misses out with a knee problem.
