Liverpool News and Form – Will Liverpool beat Watford?
Runaway leaders Liverpool will be aiming for a comfortable afternoon at Anfield on Saturday. A 3-0 success at Bournemouth last weekend extended their winning form to seven in the league and leaves them with just the two dropped points all season. That was their first clean sheet in what feels like forever as well. The home record of the Reds in this campaign is eight wins from eight.
It is 46 matches undefeated at home in league action for Liverpool now. They have scored at least two goals in each of their last fifteen EPL fixtures at Anfield. Given that the Reds also have a six-match winning streak at home going against Watford in all competitions (five of them with a clean sheet) this may be a routine afternoon for Jurgen Klopp’s men. Liverpool have been winning at both half time and full time in 14 of their last 19 Premier League games.
Liverpool have scored at least 4 goals in each of their last 3 games at Anfield against the Hornets. It’s a wonderful average of 3 goals per home game that Liverpool have secured this season but they are still waiting for that first home clean sheet of the campaign. After blanking Bournemouth away last weekend, can they follow it up at home by shutting out Watford? Five of Liverpool’s eight home wins have been by at least a two goal margin. They have been winning at half time in all but one home fixture this season.

Watford News and Form – Can the Hornets upset Liverpool?
The Hornets played out a 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace last weekend, which snapped a three-match losing streak that they had been on. It leaves them with just the one goal scored in their last four league outings, so them coming up with a win at Anfield looks so far out of the picture. It is a W1 D2 L5 record that Watford have taken on their travels this season. That lone victory, their only one of the season home and away, happened at Norwich.
Watford have lost their last two away games played against Southampton and Leicester. They have faced three of the current top-six away from home this season and Watford have lost each of those without having scored. Watford in total have come up with just the five away goals this season. They have averaged 2.13 goals per game against them in this campaign on the road. Watford have now failed to win 19 of their last 20 Premier League games. Nigel Pearson will take charge for the first time after being handed the manager’s job.

Liverpool vs Watford Predictions
Liverpool to win: This should be a routine enough victory for the Reds at Anfield. Watford are just there for the taking and a change of manager isn’t likely to help them out too much in this one. There has to be value in a Liverpool to win to nil option.
