Watford Preview – Can Watford end slump?
Watford’s previous revival under manager, Nigel Pearson, which saw Saturday evening’s hosts register 4 wins from a 5-match spell and the hope that went along with it proved to be short-lived as The Hornets have since slumped to a subsequent 5-match sequence without a win in the Premier League.
The hosts had seemingly found the missing ingredient under Pearson and looked to be heading for safety having recorded wins against Manchester United, Aston Villa, Wolves and Bournemouth but they’ve since been handed defeats by Aston Villa, Everton and Manchester United which has plunged Watford back into the relegation mire.
Coming up against the runaway Premier League leaders, Liverpool, this Saturday though, it may be best to steer away from the straight win market, but goals have featured on a regular basis as 8 of Watford’s 13 home matches have resulted in over 2.5 goals indicate.
Liverpool Preview – Can Liverpool extend winning streak?
Liverpool were recently handed an unexpected defeat in the Champions League to Spanish side, Atletico Madrid, but as the return leg is not until mid-March, we can expect Jurgen Klopp to field a strong side as he looks to engineer an impressive 19th straight win in the Premier League for his Liverpool outfit.
Liverpool’s march toward the league title has been relentless this season and this has also been the case on their travels where the visitors possess an excellent away record of 12-1-0 26/6 which includes winning their last 8 matches on the trot.
At this point it’s worth mentioning that the straight win for Liverpool is priced too low as expected, but the goals angle for this upcoming clash looks promising as 8 of Liverpool’s 13 away matches have also resulted in over 2.5 goals.
In addition, 4 of the last 5 meetings between these two sides have seen over 2.5 goals scored.
