Prediction: 1-1
Hull City
Watford play host to Hull City at Vicarage Road in what promises to be a close Championship battle. The Hornets are desperate to bounce back from consecutive defeats to Blackburn and Millwall, with goals proving hard to come by. To make things even worse, first-choice goalkeeper Egil Selvik is rated doubtful after sustaining a knock in the clash with the Lions. Hull City, meanwhile, impressed in a 3-1 home win over Southampton, showing their attacking potential, but their away form has been far from convincing, failing to win any of their last four away games in all competitions.
The Tigers are also dealing with selection issues, as Ajayi, Crooks, Matazo, Millar, and Vaughan are all expected to sit out through injury. Taking everything into account, this fixture could easily go either way, but given Hull’s poor away record and Watford’s struggles in front of goal, a share of the spoils seems the most likely outcome.
