Swansea will hope to earn their second win of the campaign as they host Watford on matchday three of the 2025-26 Championship season. This match will be played on Saturday at the Swansea.com Stadium, and our prediction is that the Swans will overcome the Hornets.
Both teams have three points each from one win and a loss in the first two games of the season. They start this round in 14th and 15th spots, with the visitors slightly ahead of their hosts.
Swansea won 1-0 at home against Sheffield United last weekend, building on their win in the EFL Cup. Interestingly, their defeat on matchday one away at Middlesbrough has also come by a 1-0 scoreline.
Home form could be crucial for Swansea if they want to stay in the reckoning for a playoff place, as both their wins this season have come at this venue.
Watford lost 1-0 on their last visit to this venue but are coming off a 2-1 home win over QPR in the last round. That result helped them bounce back from two defeats to start their competitive season.
One of those losses was a 1-0 away defeat at Charlton, adding to their concerns on the road. Watford have now lost six away games in the Championship in a row.

Our Swansea vs Watford Prediction
Both Swansea and Watford are coming off home wins in the Championship last weekend, albeit contrastingly. The Swans were convincing against Sheffield United, while the Hornets escaped narrowly against QPR. There’s nothing to separate these sides so far, although Swansea have a slight edge after last weekend’s results. Home advantage also works in their favour, especially considering they defeated Watford 1-0 at this venue last season.
Watford have been dreadful on the road lately, and that could work against them even on this trip. Our Swansea vs Watford prediction is Swansea wins the match.
