Prediction: 1-1
Brentford
Thanks to a hard-fought 1-0 win over ten-man Birmingham City, Watford remained in the race for automatic promotion to the Premier League. The Hornets are eyeing their third consecutive win in the Championship, but the midweek clash against Brentford will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts. You should bear in mind that Vladimir Ivic, who won the Manager of the Month award for Novemeber, and his men are after their third consecutive clean sheet in the league.
The Bees, on the other hand, did well to beat Nottingham Forest 3-1 on the road, with the team regaining their spot in top six. Brentford quickly returned to winning ways following a disappointing draw with Derby County, and they are surely capable of making life difficult for Watford at Vicarage Road. A close encounter is on the cards in the Championship derby, and we are tempted to put our money on draw.

Highlighted Player (Joao Pedro):
Joao Pedro played for Atletico Mineiro during his youth career and he made no less than 11 appearances for the club at senior level. The Brazilian footballer, who was born on 9 March, 1992 in Ipatinga, signed a deal with Palermo on 30 August, 2010 and he made his debut for the Sicilian outfit in the Serie A on 17 January, 2011.
He came as a substitute to replace Josip Ilicic in a 3-1 defeat to Cagliari. On 29 January, 2011 he joined Vitoria Guimaraes on loan and on 19 August he was loaned to Penarol of Uruguay. After ending his loan spell with the Uruguayan team, the Brazilian midfielder joined Santos and he played 10 games for the Brazilian team.
On 1 July he signed a contract with Estoril and he moved to Cagliari at the end of the season. Joao Pedro has 11 caps for Brazil U17 and he scored one goal for the national team.
Highlighted Team (Brentford):
Based in London, Brentford compete in the Championship and they were founded in 1898. Griffin Park has been the home ground of the club since 1904 and the capacity of the venue is 12,300.
The Bees have yet to play in the Premier League and it has to be noted that they made it to the FA Cup sixth round on four occasions (1937/1938, 1945/1946,1948/1949, 1988/1989). Brentford played in the League Cup round 4 in the 1982/1983 and 2010/2011 season and that is the club’s biggest success in the competition.
Brentford’s main rivals are Fulham and Queens Park Rangers and they take on each other in the West London Derby. The rivalry with the Cottagers is probably the biggest and you should bear in mind that the clashes between the two teams have their history of crowd violence. The colour of Brentford’s shirts is red and white and they wear black shorts.
