Watford play host to Oxford United at their Vicarage Road in what is expected to be an exciting Championship encounter. The Hornets head into the match following a 2-2 draw with Portsmouth where talented Ireland midfielder Rocco Vata scored as a substitute. The 20-year-old is pushing for a rare start, while all Grieves, Dwomoh, and Chakvetazde are all expected to miss out with injuries.
The Yellows, on the other hand, have been struggling offensively of late, with the team failing to find the net in the previous two league matches. As over the years Watford have turned their Vicarage Road into a real fortress, we predict that the visitors are going to return home with their hands empty. In their last meeting at the venue, Watford defeated Oxford United 1-0, with Gary Rowett scoring the only goal of the match. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 4 October 2025 at 15:00.
