Our prediction for this Championship match:
Watford
Match Time & Date:
13 September 2025
15:00
Prediction: 2-1
Blackburn Rovers
Vicarage Road will host Saturday’s football game between Watford and Blackburn Rovers, the two bottom-table sides. The Hornets head into the match following back-to-back draws with Swansea City and Southampton and, no doubt, they are eager to return to winning ways as soon as possible. Kwadwo Baah is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute in a 2-2 draw with Southampton, while Imran Louza continues to miss out through suspension.
The Riversiders, on the other hand, made a slow start to the season, with the team already suffering three defeats in the process. As Blackburn Rovers suffered a 1-0 loss to Watford in their last meeting at Vicarage Road, we are tempted to place our bets on the home side. Sean McLoughlin’s suspension is yet another reason why we predict the hosts will emerge triumphant in Saturday’s encounter.
