Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-1
Brighton & Hove Albion
Watford square off against Brighton at their Vicarage Road Stadium in the opening game of the season. The Hornets aim to make a flying start to the 2018/2019 campaign, but Saturday’s football match will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts. Watford will be without key player Richarlison in the upcoming season, which is probably the main reason why we are not tempted to put our money on the hosts. The Seagulls, on the other hand, aim to continue where they left last term. Brighton did well to beat Nantes in their final warm-up game, but beating Watford on the road is easier said than done. The two sides seem to be evenly matched at the moment, therefore, we predict that they are going to play out a draw at Vicarage Road Stadium. In their last meeting in Watford the two teams played out a goalless draw.
