Watford’s 1-0 win over ill-fated Sunderland was their first Premier League victory in 5 outings. Britos goal on the hour was enough to see off the Black Cats and the 3 points will help to ease any late season relegation worries. With 6 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats at Vicarage Road, Watford’s home form has been patchy at best during their steady league campaign.
West Bromwich Albion secured an impressive away point at Old Trafford on Saturday against a toothless Man Utd side. Tony Pullis will have been delighted with the performance of his rear-guard, with defensive organisation and doggedness both traits Pullis has always championed. Jonny Evans and Gareth McAuley were particularly excellent.
WBA beat Watford 3-1 in the reverse fixture between the two, but a repeat of that result might be a little too much to ask this time around. The Baggies are a full 10 points and 4 places ahead of Watford in the Premier League table and they will still harbour some hopes of qualifying for Europe.
There is very little to choose between Walter Mazzarri’s and Tony Pullis’ teams, even when you factor in the 10 point gap between them. Would both sides take a point right now? I’d imagine they would. A draw looks a safe bet between two organised and well-matched teams. Read our Watford v West Bromwich Albion betting tips below.
NetBet offers 11/5 for Tuesday’s game to end in a draw and those odds look well worth a go. NetBet give Watford odds of 6/4 and West Bromwich Albion odds of 41/20 to record respective wins, but with both sides likely to set their sides up to cancel the other one out, neither offer looks worth your attention. Under 2.5 goals is 5/8 with NetBet too, which is a useful accumulator selection.
