LiontipsWatford vs West Bromwich. Prediction (odds 3.10) and bets on the English Championship match
Command Analysis
Current form
Watford are certainly determined to fight for a return to the elite of English football. Yes, the game is far from ideal, but the hosts are picking up points on a regular basis and have not lost in the Championship for five matches in a row (two wins and three draws). At the moment, the team occupies eighth place in the standings and is only three points behind Middlesbrough, who are in the play-off zone, while Watford still have two games in hand.
Disqualifications and injuries
Dele-Bashiru and Ogbonna will not play in the match due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Watford are unbeaten for five games in a row
- The hosts have kept clean sheets in three of their last five matches
Tentative line-up: Bond - Morris, Sierralta, Porteous, Sema - Dvomo, Luza, Andrews - Baa, Ince, Rajovich.
Current form
West Bromwich are more reliable in defense than their opponents and do not resort to the "whoever scores more, wins" tactic. The visitors, with 14 goals conceded, are third in the Championship in reliability. Only Sheffield United (11) and Burnley (7) have conceded fewer. The team is also the most peaceful away from home in this league. In five of the last six matches, the team ended in a draw with their opponents, and in general, a draw was recorded in eight of the last ten matches, and the club has not lost since October 1 of this year.
Disqualifications and injuries
Ajayi, Daryl and McNeil will be out of the match due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- Eight of the visitors' last ten matches have ended in a draw
- West Bromwich have scored two goals in their last two matches
Probable line-up: Palmer - Stiles, Heggem, Holgate, Furlong - Mowatt, Fellows - Johnston, Molumby, Grant - Maja.

1.72Tip and bets
The result of this game is very important for both teams, because the opponents are directly fighting for getting into the playoff zone for the right to rise to the Premier League. With a high degree of probability, the footballers will devote a lot of time to defensive actions and try first of all not to concede, because playing in the role of a catch-up is not so easy. We believe that this match will be different from the three previous face-to-face matches, in which at least four goals were scored between the two teams, but at the same time, it is unlikely that anyone will leave their goal intact and undamaged.
Our prediction is both teams to score with odds of 1.85
Bet on the outcome
Both teams are in good shape, and bookmakers estimate the chances of winning the upcoming match as approximately equal. In principle, this option is quite logical, because 10 of the last 12 games of the guests ended exactly like this, and the hosts ended in a draw in three of the last four matches. We believe that it will not be possible to determine the winner in this confrontation, that is, after the final whistle the score on the scoreboard will be equal.
Our prediction is a draw with odds of 3.10
Bet on corners
Watford average 5.2 corners per match, while West Bromwich average 5.4. These are not small figures, so we'll bet on the opponents being able to take ten corners between them in the upcoming match.
Our prediction is total over 9.5 corners for 1.80
