Watford News and Form – Can the Watford beat Chelsea for the first win?

It is a three-match sequence of drawn games from Watford. Last weekend they visited Bournemouth and played out a 0-0 draw. So they have steadied things a bit after a horrendous run of form at the start of the season. They have now only conceded one goal in their last three league games. But in the attack, they are still falling a long way short.

It has been just one goal by Watford in their last five league games. Their returns from Vicarage Road in this campaign is D3 L2 and they have picked up a draw in each of their last three there. The last two have been 0-0 scorelines. It is only the three home goals that Watford have produced this season in the league. They have averaged 1.6 goals per game against them.

Watford’s last four games have all gone under 2.5 goals. It is worth noting that each of their home draws have been against sides who are currently sitting inside the top ten in the league currently. They have banked a clean sheet in two of their five home games. At this point, they need something big, something to potentially kickstart their season. They are the lowest-scoring side in the top flight and have the third-worst defensive record.

Chelsea News and Form – Can Chelsea win at Watford?

Chelsea have some big momentum going along at the moment in the Premier League. They have won their last four games in the top flight after taking a 4-2 victory at Burnley last weekend. Christian Pulisic netted a hatrack in the game for the Blues. Away from home Chelsea are also on a four-match winning streak, having netted at least three goals in each of those four games as well.

They look potent going forward and the numbers back that up. Chelsea average 3.2 goals per road fixture. As shown last weekend against Burnley, they still don’t look that reliable at the back, however, with the Blues averaging 2.2 goals per road game against them. All of Chelsea’s away games in the top flight this season have made it over 3.5 goals. Watford may not have a great input in his game, so the fixture may struggle to get up to a high number.

Of Chelsea’s six league wins this season, four of them have been by a margin of at least two goals. Chelsea have been leading at halftime in three of their five away games (D1 L1). Two-thirds of their away goals have come before the half time break in away games, so they have been quick starters. They have opened the scoring in all but two of their league games this season. Only Leicester and Man City have scored more league goals than Chelsea this season.

Chelsea to win: The Blues can keep their strong form going. They may have to be patient against Watford who have improved a little bit lately. But Chelsea can attack in wave after wave and they look very confident at the moment. Away win.
