Liverpool vs Watford. Prediction and Betting Tips for English Premier League (April 2, 2022).

Liverpool have alrady won their first trophy this season. In February, they beat Chealsea on penalties in the final of the League Cup. After that, the Reds reached the semifinals of the FA Cup, where they will face Man City in two weeks.

They also have a decent chance of success in the Champions League. After collecting maximum points in group games, Jurgen Klopp's side won against Inter Milan in the first playoff round (2:1 on aggregate). 

In the Premier League, the Reds are in 2nd place with 69 points from 29 games, just one point behind the defending champions Manchester City. They have recorded 21 victories and six draws and have scored 75 goals. In the last two matches, Liverpool beat Brighton (2:0) and Arsenal (2:0). 

Alexander-Arnold is out with a hamstring injury and Milner is a doubt. 

Watford are having a rough season. The newly promoted team is at risk of getting relegated - they are only 18th in the Premier League standings with 22 points from six wins and four draws. The Hornets average one goal per game and concede twice as much. 

The team has changed managers twice this season. In January, Roy Hodgeson became the new head coach for Watford. After a crushing defeat to Wolverhampton (0:4), today's visitors prevailed over Southampton (2:1).

The Hornets had little success in the domestic cups. First, they got knocked out of the League Cup by Stoke City (1:3), and then suffered a defeat to Leicester in their first game of the FA Cup (1:4).

Nkoulou and Ngakia are lacking match fitness and probably won't play against Liverpool.
